Meet Continuum
An Astro theme that remembers how good Windows Phone felt. Panoramas, live tiles, and a title that flies from the list into the page.

The continuum transition
How a title lifts out of a list and becomes the header of the next page, and why it matters more than it looks.
Panoramas, not pages
The hub is one wide page that pans. Four layers move at their own speeds, and the next section always peeks in from the right.
Typography is the interface
Big, light type on a strong left edge does the work that chrome usually does. A look at the type ramp and the face behind it.
Live tiles, honestly
Tiles that turn over to show what's inside, sized the way Windows Phone 8 sized them. This post lives in its own folder, with its image beside it.
Writing in Obsidian, publishing with Continuum
Your vault is the site. How Continuum works with Vault CMS and Zeku, and what to put in a note's properties.
A note on accents
Twenty colors, one at a time. How Continuum keeps the Windows Phone palette at full strength and still passes contrast.
