## Conventions

- Each essay is also reachable at `/notes/{slug}.md` for the raw
  markdown source (frontmatter plus body).
- Drafts are excluded from this listing, from /notes, from the sitemap,
  and from the feed. They still live in the repo under `src/content/notes/`.
- Order is reverse-chronological by `date` field; newest first.
