## Changes
- Add a Releases tab to the top navigation via a custom Starlight
Header override (HeaderLinks.astro)
- Add ReleaseCard.astro — Vercel/Linear-style entry with sticky date
+ version on the left, headline and feature bullets on the right
- Curate 14 release entries spanning v1.0 (Sept 2024) through v3.7.1
(April 2026), each focused on the most important user-facing
features rather than every commit
- Newest release carries a "Latest" badge in the brand color
- Mobile layout collapses the two-column timeline to a single column
## Benefits
- Visitors can see at a glance what shipped recently and what
Checkmate has matured into over time
- The data file (src/data/releases.ts) is the only thing that needs
editing when a new version ships — no template or styling churn
- Built on the same Starlight site as the API docs, so look and feel
stay consistent
## Changes
- Add narrative API documentation in docs/api-content/ (introduction,
quickstart, authentication, conventions, errors, rate limiting)
- Scaffold Astro Starlight site at docs/api/ that consumes prose from
the sibling api-content folder and auto-generates the endpoint
reference from server/openapi.json via starlight-openapi
- Wire Checkmate brand color (#13715B) into Starlight via custom CSS
- Add vercel.json so the docs site deploys cleanly as an Astro project
with root directory docs/api/
## Benefits
- Public API docs ready to publish at checkmate.so/docs
- Endpoint reference stays in sync with the OpenAPI spec automatically
- Zero third-party SaaS dependency: site is fully self-hosted on Vercel
- Contributors edit plain markdown; no Astro knowledge needed for prose
