Wins & Failures

An Astro static site keeping public score of finished projects, wins, failures, and lessons. One script tag in the whole build.

Keeping score in public

Wins are easy to publish. A scoreboard only counts if the failures are on it.

What I built

An Astro static site: a public table of finished projects with wins, failures, and lessons attached. Zero client JavaScript by default — exactly one script tag in the whole site, for the table filter. MDX holds the entries; the sitemap integration keeps them findable.

The honest lesson

It never deployed. Built local-only, and then the idea outgrew its container — the honesty concept graduated into this site's scoreboard. The standalone version turned out to be the prototype for the idea. That's a fine thing to be.
