Add Nav, About/Projects pages and nginx hardening
CI / ci (push) Successful in 28s

Harden nginx: add CSP, HSTS, Referrer-Policy and Permissions-Policy;
include image/svg+xml in gzip types; set X-Content-Type-Options on
static assets; change try_files to return =404.

Add Nav component and wire into BaseLayout; add About and Projects
pages with projects.json, an initial blog post, and small layout/padding
adjustments (removed redundant back links).

<h2>The Den</h2>
<p class="desc">
Hidden Den Cafe is my little corner of the internet — self-hosted,
self-maintained, and free from corporate nonsense. No trackers, no ads,
no data harvesting. Just a cozy space that I built and control.

<section class="section fade-in">
<h2>Who I Am</h2>
<p class="desc">
I'm <span class="highlight">Latte</span> — an IT wizard with a homelab,
a love for privacy, and a deep distrust of companies that treat your data
like their product. I believe in owning your infrastructure, running your
own services, and keeping things under your own roof.
</p>
<p class="desc">
I'm a gay furry developer who builds things because I want them to exist —
not because some product manager told me to. My stack leans toward Python
and self-hosted tooling, but I'm always exploring new things.
</p>
</section>
<section class="section fade-in">
<h2>The Homelab</h2>
<p class="desc">
Most of what runs here lives on my own hardware — Gitea for code, Docker
for deployment, nginx for serving. Where physical infra doesn't make sense,
I rent VPS capacity from OVH and Play.hosting. For work, the Microsoft 365
ecosystem does what it needs to do.
</p>
<p class="desc">
The goal isn't purity — it's control. Keep data minimal, choose providers
you understand, avoid surveillance-adjacent platforms. Self-host what you
can; rent infra where it's practical; use what you need without pretending
you don't.
</p>
