## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Recreating this website

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Layer thin outlined numerals behind a dimensional subject and place a heavy solid headline across both to establish three distinct visual depths. Contrast a pale opening field with a deeper background and warm serif chapter titles, keeping small navigation anchored around the perimeter. For a new subject, replace the hand, year, month names, and project imagery with relevant objects and chapters while retaining the scale contrast and asymmetric spacing; increase image contrast where inspection matters.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the captured walkthrough frames, not by the creator.

A minimalist editorial year-in-review page branded “green chameleon,” featuring oversized typography and pale photographic imagery.

- Color: Muted teal and mint backgrounds, vivid blue lettering, and warm yellow-gold accents.
- Type: Large bold uppercase sans-serif for the title, paired with oversized elegant serif month lettering and small interface labels.
- Framing: The opening title sits over thin outlined numerals and a cutout hand image; other frames center large month names above or alongside small image and layout previews.
- Structure: A full-screen sequence of clean, mostly single-color panels with slim edge navigation and small corner labels; the visible content progresses from a 2018 title card to a January section and thumbnail previews.
