Ink website

Marketing and download site for Ink, a calm, offline Markdown notes app. Astro (static output), TypeScript, plain CSS, Bun. No analytics, no cookies, no third-party requests.

Run

bun install
bun run dev        # http://localhost:4321
bun run build      # astro check + static build into dist/
bun run preview    # serve dist/

Where things live

What	Where
Name, version, size, checksum, download and repo URLs	`src/config.ts` (the only file to edit for a release)
Changelog entries	`src/content/changelog/*.md` (front matter: `version`, `date`, `title`, `prerelease`)
Screenshots	`src/assets/screens/`, described in `src/lib/screens.ts`
Theme tokens	top of `src/styles/global.css`
Pages	`src/pages/`

Releasing a new version

Build the app (bun run dist in the Ink repo) and upload the AppImage to your release page.
In src/config.ts update version, releaseDate, the platform bytes and sha256 (sha256sum Ink-*.AppImage).
Add src/content/changelog/<version>.md. The build warns if the newest entry differs from config.version.

Screenshots

Each screenshot is a name plus two theme variants, 16:10, 2400x1500:

src/assets/screens/editor-dark.png      editor-light.png

A real .png/.webp/.jpg automatically replaces a placeholder .svg of the same name, and a bare editor.png is used for both themes. <Screenshot name="editor" /> handles sizes, lazy loading and picking the image for the visitor's colour scheme.

Regenerating them from the real app (read only; nothing in the Ink repo is touched):

bun run screenshots          # = sh scripts/capture/run.sh

This runs Ink headless (Electron, --ozone-platform=headless) against a throw-away notes folder that scripts/capture/seed-vault.cjs builds in /tmp (about 40 notes, a board, a canvas, a few page versions, tag colours). scenes.cjs drives the UI the way a user would (Ctrl+K, /, Ctrl+G ...) and saves both themes straight into src/assets/screens/. Link-card previews are stubbed so no network is used. Edit the seed or a scene and re-run to change a shot. Needs the Ink repo built and installed next to this one (INK_APP=/path/to/Ink overrides the location; SCENES=editor,canvas limits what is captured).

To add a new screenshot, add it to src/lib/screens.ts, add a scene, and run bun run assets for a placeholder in the meantime.

Deploy

The output is plain static files in dist/. Set two environment variables at build time:

SITE_URL: the public origin, e.g. https://ink.example (used for canonical URLs, sitemap, Open Graph).
BASE_PATH: only for a sub-path such as a GitHub Pages project site (/ink-website). Default /.

Cloudflare Pages / Netlify: build command bun run build, output directory dist, set SITE_URL.

GitHub Pages: .github/workflows/deploy.yml builds with Bun and publishes dist/. Edit SITE_URL and BASE_PATH in it, then enable Settings → Pages → Source: GitHub Actions.

Add Sitemap: <SITE_URL>/sitemap-index.xml to public/robots.txt once the URL is known.

Notes

public/og.png (1200x630) is a static file; replace it if the tagline changes.
The typescript dependency is pinned to 6.x because astro check does not support TypeScript 7 yet.
Builds are unsigned and Windows/macOS are "coming soon" by design: see platforms.*.available in config.ts.
