&lt;p&gt;The core idea is simple: if the assistant can listen and &lt;em&gt;see the current UI&lt;/em&gt;, it can give concrete next-step guidance instead of generic chatbot answers.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>bil.arikan.ca Migration</title><link>https://bil.arikan.ca/projects/site-migration/</link><pubDate>Wed, 11 Feb 2026 00:00:00 -0500</pubDate><guid>https://bil.arikan.ca/projects/site-migration/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;This project documents the migration of &lt;code&gt;bil.arikan.ca&lt;/code&gt; from an Astro-based site to a Hugo-based site using the Congo theme.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Astro site was working, but I wanted a setup that is simpler to maintain for long-form writing, easier to run as a content-first workflow, and included support for &lt;a href="https://mermaid-js.github.io/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Mermaid.js&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/general/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Chart.js&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
