-# Open-BeatBox.github.io
+# Beatbox – Content-Driven Next.js Site
+
+A Next.js 15 App Router site for **Beatbox**, an open, modular home-cage cognitive monitoring system. All copy and structure come from Markdown in `content/` and render through reusable React components.
+
+## Content model
+- Site metadata: `content/_site.md` (title, description, keywords, authors, Open Graph/Twitter defaults, logo paths).
+- Pages: top-level Markdown files like `content/home.md`, `content/beatbox.md`. Each has frontmatter with `hero`, `sections`, `layout`, `slug`, and navigation fields.
+- Blog: Markdown in `content/blog/*.md` with `layout: "blog"`, `publishAt` for scheduling, and optional `showInNav`/`navOrder`.
+- Navigation: built automatically from `showInNav` and `navOrder`.
+- Metadata: generated from `_site.md` plus per-page overrides, with canonical URLs built from `NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL`.
+
+## Getting started
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run dev
+```
+
+## Scripts
+- `npm run dev` – start development server
+- `npm run build` – production build
+- `npm run start` – start production server
+- `npm run lint` – ESLint (Next.js config, ESLint 9)
+- `npm run type-check` – TypeScript `--noEmit`
+- `npm run test` – lightweight utility tests via `ts-node`
+
+## Adding content
+1. Duplicate an existing file in `content/` and adjust frontmatter (`title`, `layout`, `slug`, `hero`, `sections`).
+2. For blog posts, place files in `content/blog/` with `layout: "blog"` and `publishAt`. Future-dated posts are hidden until their date.
+3. Navigation updates automatically from `showInNav` and `navOrder`.
+
+## Metadata & SEO
+- Global defaults come from `content/_site.md`.
+- Per-page metadata uses hero/subtitle or body for descriptions and pulls OG/Twitter images from hero backgrounds, the first Markdown image, or the default logo/OG image.
+- `NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL` is used for canonical, sitemap, and robots entries.
+
+## Environment variables
+Copy `.env.example` to `.env.local` and fill in:
+- `MAILGUN_API_KEY`, `MAILGUN_DOMAIN`, `MAILGUN_API_URL`, `MAILGUN_FROM_EMAIL`, `MAILGUN_TO_EMAIL`
+- `NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL`
+- `NEXT_PUBLIC_RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY` (optional Google reCAPTCHA for the contact form)
+
+## Contact form
+`/api/send-email` accepts JSON `fields`, sanitizes values, and forwards them to Mailgun. Ensure the Mailgun variables are set and reachable from the server environment.
+
+## Styling
+Tailwind CSS v4 via `@tailwindcss/postcss`, plus small component-scoped CSS files (e.g., `HeroSection.css`, `ContentSections.css`) to keep the glass aesthetic and hero typography.
+
+## Testing
+`npm run test` executes simple utility checks via `ts-node`. Extend with additional utility or content schema tests as needed.

+    body: |
+      Beatbox is an ecological, automated operant-conditioning and home-cage monitoring device for mice. It enables continuous (24/7) behavioral experiments directly in the animal’s living environment.
+
+      By allowing mice to self-engage in tasks at any time over weeks, Beatbox both refines welfare conditions and improves the statistical power of experiments.
