+## Components
+
+### Post Cards
+
+Post listing cards use `.quarto-post`. Key behaviours:
+
+- Border: `1px solid var(--color-border)`, `border-radius: var(--radius-lg)`
+- Hover: elevates with `--shadow-lg`, translates up 2 px, accent border colour
+- Thumbnail images use `object-fit: cover` with rounded top corners
+
+### Callout Boxes
+
+Standard Quarto callouts (`.callout`) gain:
+
+- `border-radius: var(--radius-md)`
+- `box-shadow: var(--shadow-sm)`
+
+### Key Result Highlights
+
+Apply class `key-result` to a `
` or `
`:
+
+```html
+
+ The model achieves 87.4% mAP on the held-out test set.
+
+```
+
+Renders with a left-border accent, blue tinted background, and subtle shadow.
+
+### Code Blocks
+
+`pre.sourceCode` gets:
+
+- Left border in `--color-accent`
+- Subtle background `--color-bg-subtle`
+- Shadow `--shadow-sm`
+
+Inline `code` gets a muted background pill.
+
+### Navbar
+
+- Background: `--color-primary` (`#0f2a4a`)
+- Brand: bold, white, supports an optional logo image (`assets/logos/lgnd-ai-logo.svg`)
+- Nav links: semi-transparent white, darken on hover with a background highlight
+
+### Footer (custom `_footer.html`)
+
+- Background: `--color-bg-subtle`
+- 3-column responsive grid (Branding | Links | Resources)
+- Dual logo placement: LGND AI (24 px) + Clay (20 px)
+- Copyright bar with CC-BY and MIT license links
+
+---
+
+## Responsive Breakpoints
+
+Follows Bootstrap 5 / Quarto defaults:
+
+| Breakpoint | Width | Adjustments |
+|------------|-------|-------------|
+| Mobile | < 576 px | `font-size: 16 px`, reduced heading scale, tighter card padding |
+| Tablet | 576–991 px | `font-size: 16.5 px` |
+| Desktop | 992–1399 px | `font-size: 17 px` (default) |
+| Wide | ≥ 1400 px | `font-size: 18 px` |
+
+---
+
+## Accessibility
+
+- **Contrast**: all foreground/background pairings meet WCAG AA (≥ 4.5:1 for body text, ≥ 3:1 for large text).
+- **Focus styles**: `a`, `button`, `input`, `select`, and `textarea` show a 2 px solid accent outline on `:focus-visible`.
+- **Images**: logo images include `alt` text; decorative images should use `alt=""`.
+- **Semantic HTML**: Quarto generates semantic landmarks; custom templates use `
