- Base stylesheet: per-family font variables (--font-source-sans etc.) with functional slots referencing them; --font-brand defaults to var(--font-heading). Restore Fraunces/Literata faces dropped in the font-set swap - Site editor: stylized A button (always Fira Code) opens a font panel with body/heading/brand tabs; options render their own name in the candidate font at the target's size/weight; clicking the current pick clears it. Picks are stored as plain :root rows in the custom CSS, parsed and rewritten on change - Base banner: drop black text-shadow on light background; legibility via a bottom scrim fading artwork into --bg. Purple keeps its own nav shadow - Headings no longer accent-colored in base (moved to purple theme) - Keep #pagerite-user custom CSS last in <head> at every mutation point so its :root rules win equal specificity (dev injects base/theme styles after the server-rendered tag)
Pagerite
A single-user CMS/blog. FastAPI serves HTML rendered in Python with html5tagger, content is persisted in a kanta database and rendered on the fly per request. Vue is used only for interactive bits (the editing tools), not for the public pages.
Running
uv run pagerite # serves the built frontend
uv run scripts/devserver.py # dev mode with auto reloads (no build needed)
The database lives in pagerite.kantadb in the working directory
(PAGERITE_DB overrides). On startup, demo pages from pagerite/seed.py
are added only if missing.
Editing
Click the 🖊️ pen on any page: the article pen opens the page editor (Markdown with live server-rendered preview over a WebSocket), the banner pen opens the site editor (site brand, banner HTML, and the page structure tree). Everything saves immediately — no save buttons.
See docs/design-principles.md for the design and AGENTS.md for the
development conventions.
