Summary

  • Replaces the 4-column featured card grid with a stacked single-column layout
  • Each card now includes an excerpt paragraph pulled from the project's detail content ("What it solves")
  • Highlights displayed as inline metadata tags instead of a checklist
  • Left accent border replaces top border for a more editorial feel
  • Content constrained to comfortable reading width instead of stretching across the full page

Design rationale

The previous 4-across grid created a lot of chrome around thin content (~50 words per card). The new layout gives each project a substantive row with title, summary, body excerpt, and metadata — closer to a curated directory entry than a marketing card.

Test plan

  • Preview the homepage on the gh-pages deployment
  • Check responsive behavior at narrow, medium, and wide viewports
  • Verify card links navigate to correct detail pages
  • Compare visual weight against the previous design

Replace the 4-column card grid with a single-column stacked layout.
Each card now shows the project title, highlights as metadata tags,
the summary, and an excerpt pulled from the detail page body content.
Uses a left accent border instead of top border for visual hierarchy.

- Add image/imageAlt fields to overlay content model
- Forms card now shows the phone mockup screenshot from solutions site
- Cards with images use a sidebar layout (content left, image right)
- Add section intro text framing the featured work
- Refine card structure: title → summary → excerpt → tags → CTA

Move the image inside the content flow and float it to the end,
so text wraps around it naturally instead of occupying a separate
column or stacking below.

Keep .work-index__list grid rule from this branch; the
.home-featured__grid rule from main no longer applies since
featured cards now use a flex list layout.
