Summary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThis update introduces a comprehensive set of coding and design guidelines for the project, adding new markdown documentation files covering CSS, JavaScript, HTML/Markdown, images, general code style, project structure, and rule authoring. The CSS files for the main site, research, teaching, and team sections are extensively refactored to use CSS custom properties for colors and themes, improving maintainability and dark mode support. Inline styles are removed from the research layout, and stylesheet loading is optimized for performance. Accessibility enhancements are made by adding lazy loading to footer images. Additionally, a JavaScript-based blog content crawler script is removed from the codebase. Changes

🧹 Nitpick comments (11)
.cursor/rules/general-code-style.mdc (1)
22-26: Suggest: Expand documentation section
Consider adding language‑specific comment conventions (e.g., JSDoc for JS, docstrings for Python) to guide developers on structured inline documentation..cursor/rules/project-structure.mdc (1)
12-20: Suggest: Include other asset directories
To fully capture the project layout, consider mentioning where JavaScript (assets/js/) and image assets reside, and any conventions for_postsor data directories..cursor/rules/image-guidelines.mdc (1)
34-46: Suggest: Modern responsive image guidelines
Consider adding notes onsrcsetandsizesattributes for responsive imagery and retina displays, as well as lazy‑loading vialoading="lazy"..cursor/rules/rule-writing-guide.mdc (2)
24-30: Suggest: Clarify required YAML fields
Under “YAML Frontmatter,” mention thealwaysApplyanddescriptionkeys and provide an example frontmatter block for clarity.
31-45: Suggest: Minor formatting nitpick
The numbered and bulleted lists mix indentation styles—ensure consistent two‑space nesting under each list item..cursor/rules/css-style.mdc (1)
12-20: Suggest: Add theme/dark‑mode variable guidelines
Since dark mode support was enhanced, include a section on defining theme variables (e.g.,--background-light,--background-dark) and toggling them via a.theme-darkclass or media query.assets/css/team.css (1)
135-137: Prefer CSS variables for theme consistency.You've added a dark theme background color for the map section, but you're using a hardcoded color value (#121212) instead of the CSS variable
var(--team-bg-color)that's already defined at the top of the file.[data-theme="dark"] .s-map { - background-color: #121212; + background-color: var(--team-bg-color); }assets/css/teaching.css (1)
198-217: Consolidate redundant color declarations and consider alternatives to !important.The changes ensure consistent link colors across states, but there's redundancy in the declarations. The dark theme rules repeat the same color value as the light theme, which is unnecessary.
Consider using variables and reducing redundancy:
.course-card__link { align-self: flex-start; display: inline-block; padding: 0.5rem 1.2rem; background-color: #68246D; - color: #fff !important; + color: #fff; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 4px; font-weight: 500; transition: background-color 0.3s ease; } .course-card__link:link, .course-card__link:visited, .course-card__link:hover, .course-card__link:active { - color: #fff !important; + color: #fff; text-decoration: none; } -[data-theme="dark"] .course-card__link, -[data-theme="dark"] .course-card__link:link, -[data-theme="dark"] .course-card__link:visited, -[data-theme="dark"] .course-card__link:hover, -[data-theme="dark"] .course-card__link:active { - color: #fff !important; -}If you need to override other styles, consider using higher specificity selectors instead of
!important.assets/css/research.css (1)
3-12: Scope research‑specific CSS variables to the research pageYou’ve done well centralizing hardcoded colors into CSS custom properties, but you’re declaring them globally under
:root(light and dark) inresearch.css. Ifresearch.cssis loaded alongside other pages, these variables will override your global tokens site‑wide.
Consider scoping these under a page‑specific selector—for example:.s‑research { --research-bg-color: var(--color-background); /* … */ }Or wrap them in a
[data-page="research"]or.s-researchblock. This keeps research‑page variables from leaking into other sections.Also applies to: 16-25
assets/css/styles.css (2)
224-263: Consider breaking out dark theme overrides into component scopesThe dark theme override under
[data-theme="dark"]redefines many tokens in one monolithic block. Over time this can become hard to track and merge. You might:
- Split dark‑mode variable overrides into per‑component files or smaller selector groups.
- Use a theming tool (e.g., CSS‑in‑JS theme objects) or a linter to ensure parity between light and dark tokens.
1743-1757: Remove stale, commented‑out navigation stylesThe large commented block for
.s-header__nav-list aduplicates the active rules above and has served its purpose. Deleting lines 1743–1757 will declutter the stylesheet and reduce confusion.

50-51: Great performance optimization for stylesheets.Using the
media="print" onload="this.media='all'"pattern for non-critical CSS is an excellent approach to improve page load performance. This technique defers loading of non-critical CSS while ensuring it's available when needed.
230-240: Good use of lazy loading for footer images.Adding the
loading="lazy"attribute to these footer images is a great optimization. Since these images are likely below the fold, lazy loading will improve initial page load performance..cursor/rules/html-markdown-style.mdc (1)

assets/css/styles.css (1)
3-66: Review and document the expanded CSS custom propertiesGreat job extending your design tokens with a rich palette of core colors and alpha variants. To ensure future maintainability:
- Group related tokens (grays, blues, reds, alphas) with clear comment headings.
- Verify there are no near‑duplicate entries that could be consolidated.
- Update your project’s CSS style guide (
.cursor/rules/css-style.mdc) with any new tokens and their intended usage.
