Content & typography

The pieces prose is built from. Each one consumes only the semantic tier of the tokens — re-skin the palette and all of them follow.

§1.1Callout

Five variants; title replaces the variant's default label (Note / Intuition / Warning / Important / Abstract — the same defaults the quote syntax uses, localizable through labels). The kitchen-sink shows the quote-syntax and raw-HTML spellings of the same markup.

§1.2Chip

Inline badges for status and categories, in the four variants PaperCard tags and HubCard chips share: stable beta research new — or a custom tone for topic palettes: custom tone

§1.3Grid

One grid, three skins (plain, card, cmp). Cards:

Tokens first. Import order is part of the contract: tokens, then the content layer, then site chrome.

Semantic layer only. Components never touch raw colors — re-skin the palette and they all follow.

And the compare skin, made for before/after panels:

Without a guard — an unclosed ** ships to production as two literal asterisks.

With the guard — the build fails at file:line:column with a caret under the marker.

§1.4Steps

A markdown list on a vertical rail:

  1. Add the two submodules and the file: dependencies.
  2. Import tokens.css, base.css and (for a wiki) browse.css in your global stylesheet.
  3. Wire siteMarkdown() into astro.config.
  4. Override the tier-one palette with your identity pigments.

§1.6PaperCard

The survey workhorse — alias, full title, venue tags, author meta, links, and two dedicated slots:

Transformer— Attention Is All You Need
NeurIPS 2017Vaswani, Shazeer, Parmar, et al. · arXiv:1706.03762

Recurrent models process tokens one after another — long-range dependencies fade, and nothing parallelizes. Key idea: attention alone, no recurrence — every token attends to every other in one step, and the whole sequence trains in parallel. The architecture nearly every large language model since has built on.

Under a deep-dive heading, a one-line plain-language gloss (.speak) tells the reader what a module does before the mechanism:

Attention is a soft lookup table: every token asks "who is relevant to me?" and gets a weighted mix of the answers.
