ScrollFadeIn uses IntersectionObserver + CSS transitions instead of
Framer Motion's initial prop. Key difference: no inline style in SSR
HTML, so content is visible by default. Animation only activates
after client hydration (hasMounted check).
Wraps About, Projects, Contact, Footer in HomePageServer.

Framer Motion's initial={{ opacity: 0 }} was rendered as inline
style='opacity:0' in SSR HTML. If client-side JS failed to hydrate
properly, sections stayed permanently invisible.
Removed whileInView scroll animations from About, Projects, Contact.
Modal animations (AnimatePresence) kept as they only render on interaction.

dynamic() caused Framer Motion's initial opacity:0 to be baked into
SSR HTML, but client-side hydration never triggered the animations.
Direct imports ensure Framer Motion properly takes over on hydration.

ssr:false caused sections to only render client-side, making them
invisible if any JS error occurred. Keep dynamic() for code-splitting
but allow server-side rendering.

- Disable Sentry in all 3 configs (client/server/edge) - replayIntegration
was recording every DOM mutation causing overhead in Chrome
- Remove grain-overlay div and its CSS (SVG feTurbulence + mix-blend-mode:overlay
forces software compositing in Chrome on every frame)
- Remove mix-blend-multiply from BackgroundBlobs (prevents Chrome GPU compositing)
- Delete unused Grain.tsx, ShaderGradientBackground.tsx and its client wrapper

ShaderGradientBackground used 3 full-screen Three.js WebGL canvases
with a blur(150px) CSS filter, crashing Lighthouse and causing severe
lag in Chrome. BackgroundBlobs also had 7 elements with blur(100-120px)
and per-frame mouse spring tracking compounding the issue.
- Remove ShaderGradientBackground from layout (WebGL not needed for a blur effect)
- Reduce BackgroundBlobs blur from 100-120px to 60px
- Remove mouse tracking spring animations from BackgroundBlobs
- Reduce to 4 blobs (remove 3 least visible)

next/dynamic with ssr:false is not allowed in Server Components.
Follows existing BackgroundBlobsClient pattern.

- Add `prefix` param to checkRateLimit/getRateLimitHeaders so each endpoint
has its own bucket (previously all shared `admin_${ip}`, causing 429s when
analytics/track incremented past n8n endpoints' lower limits)
- n8n/hardcover/currently-reading → prefix 'n8n-reading'
- n8n/status → prefix 'n8n-status'
- analytics/track → prefix 'analytics-track'
- Remove custom analytics system (AnalyticsProvider, lib/analytics,
lib/useWebVitals, all /api/analytics/* routes) — was causing 500s in
production due to missing PostgreSQL PageView table
- Remove analytics consent toggle from ConsentBanner/ConsentProvider

Fixed map parentheses syntax errors, resolved missing ActivityFeedClient imports, and corrected ActivityFeed prop types for idleQuote support. All systems green.
Added a shimmering Skeleton component. Integrated loading states for Hero, About (Bento Grid), Reading Log, Projects Archive, and Library pages for a premium UX.
Removed aggressive background text in footer. Implemented intelligent back button for projects. Redesigned project archive page. Stabilized idle quote logic in activity feed.
Automated CMS content seeding, integrated interactive AI Chat into Bento grid, implemented intelligent idle quote logic, and unified editorial styling across all sub-pages.
Centralized UI labels in Directus, integrated AI Chat and Status into Bento grid, created standalone Books page, and redesigned project sub-pages for consistent high-end aesthetic.
Moved profile photo to Hero for immediate visibility. Rewrote DE/EN translations to be more personal and focused on self-hosting/student identity. Refined Bento grid for better content flow.
Refactored About section to use a responsive Bento Grid layout. Redesigned Hero for stronger visual impact. Implemented floating Island navigation. Updated Project cards for cleaner aesthetic.
Adds a new "Read Books" section below "Currently Reading" in the About
page. Book reviews with star ratings and comments are fetched from a
Directus CMS collection (book_reviews) and displayed with the existing
liquid design system. Includes i18n support (EN/DE), show more/less
toggle, and graceful fallback when the CMS collection does not exist yet.
