Facts magazine
A sourced, searchable collection of short answers, built to be quoted by people and by assistants.
For anyone publishing a catalogue of short, checkable entries: facts, glossary terms, FAQs, field notes, product know-how.
Every entry is a question somebody actually types, a direct answer on the first line, a few supporting paragraphs, and at least one source a reader can open. Category pages, a random entry, an RSS feed, an llms.txt and JSON-LD with the citations wired in. Dark cosmic ground, glass chrome, oversized display type, CSS-only artwork, no images to prepare.
It was the engine behind a facts site I ran for six weeks. The traffic that arrived came from ChatGPT more than from Google, which is the whole point of the answer-first structure: assistants quote the first line and link the page.
The content is one typed array. Adding an entry is one object; the sitemap, the feed, the category pages and the schema all follow.

Other templates
Art portfolio
A full-screen portrait, a sideways run of your best series, and a page for every body of work.
Painters, printmakers, photographers and anyone whose work is pictures.

A statement over slow night-sky footage, then one thin full-bleed band per series, sliding in from alternate sides and coming up in colour as you hover.
Artists, makers and studios who want the work to arrive in bands rather than a grid.
