Context
The new Hemisphere site needs to be simple to deploy and maintain.
Decision
Use a static-first publishing stack.
Reasoning
Static publishing keeps the public layer simple while leaving room for heavier systems behind the scenes.
Implementation
Astro builds the site, GitHub Actions runs the build, and GitHub Pages serves the result.
Result
The site can stay light at the public edge while documentation, archives, and automation workflows evolve around it.
Next
Keep the public surface static unless a future system clearly needs more.
