The combined section's third feature tile was Privacy, which is already
covered by the hero trust line and the comparison table. Replace it with
Volume Leveling / Audio Compressor, a genuinely differentiating feature not
shown anywhere else on the page. Shorten its description to match the other
tiles (all 15 locales). The three tiles are now: 1-click invites, volume
leveling, universal HTML5 support.

Trim the long three-sentence blurb to a tight two-liner (platform list plus
the "only sync signals, never the video" reassurance) so it matches the other
tiles in the combined section. Applied to all 15 locales.

The headline column in the old narrow two-column range (769-1023px) was too
tight to fit the full "Add to X" label plus two more buttons, so GitHub wrapped
to a second row. The hero is now single-column below 1024px (headline gets the
full width, demo stacks under it, matching the demo's own breakpoint) and
two-column at >=1024px where the column is wide enough. GitHub button label
shortened to "GitHub" for extra margin. Verified one row at 769/900/1024/1280
and the mobile stack at 375px.

- Remove the confusing, space-hungry "Episode Lobby" card from the mockup
- Give the decorative demo mockup a contrast-safe palette: accent shown as
text uses a lighter indigo, and buttons with white text on a colour get
darker shades, so every walkthrough state meets WCAG AA
- Drop the scroll-reveal fade from the above-the-fold hero demo; the fade
briefly rendered its text at partial opacity, which axe caught as failing
contrast on ~1 in 3 audits
- Mark the demo as decorative for assistive tech (aria-hidden + removed from
tab order); mouse interaction is unchanged
- Darken the footer support pill so white text meets contrast
Desktop Lighthouse: 100/100/100/100 (stable across runs). Mobile: 100

- Hero CTAs: the install buttons are compact (just the browser name) so all
three fit one line; JS detects the visitor's browser and expands that one
to the full "Add to X" call to action. Unknown browsers stay compact.
- Hero demo: caption now sits directly under the two windows (absolutely
positioned to the card cascade) instead of far below the tall scene. The
scene keeps a fixed height that already fits the open popup, so the
vertically centered hero never jumps when the popup toggles.
- The background window now also shows a (non-interactive) extension icon,
making it clear both browsers have KoalaSync installed.
- Escape now also closes the demo popup.
- Added a link from the comparison table to the fuller alternatives/guides
hub, localized in all 15 languages.

Outside-click handling was scoped to the demo scene, so clicks elsewhere
on the page left the popup open and it felt unclosable. A document-level
listener now collapses it from anywhere, like a real extension popup,
and the popup header gained an explicit close button next to the version
link (hidden in the static mobile mockup).

Reserving the full 600px open-popup height pushed the H1 down on short
viewports. The scene now stays at 500px (below the left column height,
so it never drives the grid row) and the extension popup is anchored to
the scene bottom, growing upwards on open. Layout stays pixel-stable
when the walkthrough toggles the popup.

The scene animated its own height when the walkthrough toggled the
extension popup; with the vertically centered hero grid this re-centered
the left column and shifted everything below on mid-size screens. The
scene now always reserves the 600px open state, so toggling the popup
never reflows the page.

- New hero headline "Turn any video into a watch party" with animated
gradient highlight, sharper subtitle and quiet trust line under the CTAs
- Changelog badge redesigned as the koala's speech bubble (version and
release date baked in at build time, no version.json fetch anymore)
- Light/dark theme toggle in the header (dark default, pre-paint via
lang-init, full light theme across sections)
- Use cases and "Why KoalaSync" merged into one section with the three
strongest feature tiles; question-mark koala moved to the FAQ
- FAQ and self-hosting setup collapsed by default via shared
section-collapse component (hash deep links auto-open them)
- Compat/juggler section more compact
- og:image switched to the 1280x640 repository OpenGraph card (landing
and join page), generated during build
- "watch party" keyword added to meta title/description in all 15 locales
- All em-dashes removed from user-facing copy

- Change .hero from align-items:center to flex-start so content starts from top
- Increase padding-top in short-viewport media query (<=920px height) to
clamp(7.5rem, 10vh, 9rem) from clamp(3.75rem, 6vh, 5.5rem) so it always
clears the ~96px nav bar
- Fix pre-existing lint errors: remove unused variables demoFinishedByStory,
firstTake; add website/www to eslint ignores
Remove firstTake && !demoFinishedByStory guard from takeOver handler
so clicks outside the extension mockup always collapse the popup,
regardless of whether the automated walkthrough finished.
