Contact Form
- The contact form uses a simple mailto flow (client email client opens with a prefilled message).
- This requires a local email client configured on the visitor’s machine.
- To use a backend service instead, swap the form action to a service like Formspree and remove the mailto script.

Local Preview
- Open index.html directly in a browser, or use a static file server for cleaner URL behavior.
  - Python 3: `python -m http.server 8000` (then visit http://localhost:8000/)
  - Node: `npx serve` (or any static HTTP server)

Deploying to GitHub Pages
- Push changes to the branch GitHub Pages is configured to serve from (commonly `main` or the `docs/` folder).
- Ensure all assets referenced in HTML are committed to this repo.
