LameCRAFT

My sites and tools are served from a machine at home by FastAPI on uvicorn. The internet reaches it through a Cloudflare tunnel: the server dials out, so serving the sites needs no port opened on the router and the machine is never addressed directly. A new subdomain is one line of tunnel config, which is also how MagLock's remote access works.

It's deliberately private — the pages it serves are my own notes and tools, not a product — so this page describes it without linking to it.

A Python control panel — about fifteen hundred lines, packaged as a Windows executable with PyInstaller — starts and stops the services, and watches processes, ports and network state through psutil. Its colours, fonts and motion were the first thing I ever designed carefully, and they turned into everything below.

Command Nexus is specified in one JSON file: colour tokens and the maths that derives them, typography, glyphs, button behaviour, motion constants, component shapes, a paste-ready :root block, and a checklist of sixteen things a faithful copy must have and nine it must never do. Because it's data rather than a mood board, any page, app or tool can reproduce it exactly — and MagLock's Flutter theme is copied from it colour for colour.

• Void--bg · #030306
• Primary--accent · #00ff9d
• Info--accent2 · #00d4ff
• Danger--accent3 · #ff3366
• Warning--accent4 · #ffd700
• Secondary--accent5 · #c77dff

• ◈Near-black void, never pure black; one monospace family and nothing else.
• ◈Every border one pixel and square — no radius anywhere.
• ◈“Glow” is colour blending, never blur; buttons invert instantly on hover, with no transition.
• ◈Section heads are uppercase, letter-spaced and prefixed with ◈.
• ◈All motion runs off one shared phase value ticking every 50ms — create once, mutate forever — so nothing on a page drifts out of step.

My study material lives on the same server as standalone HTML pages in the Command Nexus look, with maths typeset by KaTeX. A shared print kit adds one-click PDF export and print settings to any page with a single script tag — and taught me how fiddly raster pagination is: every atomic block has to refuse to split, or a PDF cuts an equation in half.
