refactor: restructure repo into src/ site/ dist/ vendor/ packs/
Separate framework source from website:
- src/layers/ + src/main.css: CSS framework source (was assets/css/)
- site/: Hugo website (content/, layouts/, hugo.toml)
- dist/: built output (asw.css, asw.min.css)
- vendor/open-props/: vendored dependency with version tracking
- Hugo module mounts: dist/ → static, site runs from site/

Build: hugo --source site/ passes (105 pages).
npm run build produces dist/asw.css.

Agentic Semantic Web

ASW is a vocabulary and design system for the agentic era — semantic HTML with data-* attributes, CSS-only styling, no JavaScript required where a browser element already does the job.

Built for sites generated by agents and read by agents. Navigable by humans.

What this is

  • Docs — the ASW HTML vocabulary, layout system, and components
  • Vault — live ASW notation: task lists, sessions, diffs, wikilinks
  • Posts — writing and vocabulary reference
  • Papers — longer-form thinking on the semantic web

The design principle

No invented CSS classes. Every style target is either a semantic HTML element or a data-* attribute:

<aside data-callout="note">This is a note.</aside>
<section data-layout="grid">...</section>
<a data-wikilink href="/notes/session/">session log</a>

Agents read the attributes. Humans read the content. The CSS connects them.

Try the shortcodes

{{< callout note >}} This is a note callout rendered via the callout shortcode. Output: <aside data-callout="note">. {{< /callout >}}

{{< callout tip >}} See the Getting Started post to wire ASW into your Hugo project. {{< /callout >}}
