Caution
Some comments are outside the diff and can’t be posted inline due to platform limitations.
⚠️ Outside diff range comments (2)
News.md (1)
16-62: News item count exceeds guideline limit.The News.md file currently contains 6 non-pinned monthly sections (November, September, August, July, June, May), but the coding guideline specifies keeping only the 5 most recent non-pinned items. Consider removing the oldest section (May) to comply with the guideline.
As per coding guidelines.
assets/js/teaching.js (1)
138-142: Use double quotes for DOM selector queries.Line 142 uses single quotes in the selector query. Convert to double quotes to maintain consistency with JavaScript coding guidelines.
Apply this diff:
const extractDateFromElement = (element) => { return ( element.getAttribute("data-date") || element.getAttribute("date") || - element.querySelector('.course-date, .date, time, [class*="date"]') + element.querySelector(".course-date, .date, time, [class*=\"date\"]") ?.textContent || element.querySelector("[datetime]")?.getAttribute("datetime") ||
🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
_teaching/index.md (1)
46-61: Consider adding image dimensions for layout stability.The new course card follows the existing structure well and includes proper lazy loading. However, consider adding
widthandheightattributes to the image to prevent layout shift during page load. Since the SVG is 600×400px (per PR description), you could add:- <img src="/assets/images/teaching/soft-matter.svg" alt="Introduction to Soft Matter" loading="lazy"> + <img src="/assets/images/teaching/soft-matter.svg" alt="Introduction to Soft Matter" width="600" height="400" loading="lazy">This applies to the other course images as well, but addressing it for new content helps prevent the pattern from spreading.
As per coding guidelines.
scripts/deploy.sh (2)
22-30: Consider checking for lsof availability.The script relies on
lsofto check port availability, but this tool might not be available on all systems (particularly minimal Docker containers or some Linux distributions). Consider adding a check at the script start:# Check for required tools if ! command -v lsof &> /dev/null; then echo -e "${RED}✗ Error: lsof command not found. Please install lsof to use this script.${NC}" >&2 exit 1 fiAlternatively, you could use a more portable method like
nc(netcat) or directly attempting to bind to the port, thoughlsofis generally the most reliable option when available.
64-96: Consider adding Jekyll availability check.The script assumes
bundle exec jekyll servewill work, but doesn't verify that Jekyll and its dependencies are installed. Consider adding a check before port detection:# Check for Jekyll availability if ! bundle exec jekyll --version &> /dev/null; then echo -e "${RED}✗ Error: Jekyll not available. Run './scripts/setup.sh' first.${NC}" >&2 exit 1 fiThis would provide clearer error messages if the user hasn't run setup yet, rather than failing after port detection.

42-44: ---The
form-dataoverride is justified—it addresses CVE-2025-7783.The override to
^4.0.4is appropriate. Versions 4.0.0–4.0.3 (along with earlier major versions) contained a critical vulnerability (CVE-2025-7783) where multipart boundary strings were generated usingMath.random(), making them predictable and enabling HTTP parameter pollution attacks. Version 4.0.4 is the patched release.Consider adding a brief comment to
package.jsondocumenting this security rationale for future maintainers:"overrides": { "form-data": "^4.0.4" // Ensure patched version (CVE-2025-7783) }assets/js/command-data.js (1)
2-2: LGTM! Valid cleanup of lint directive.The removal of
Fusefrom the global lint directive is appropriate since Fuse.js is loaded via CDN in the HTML layout files and doesn't need to be declared as a global in this file's context.eslint.config.js (1)
14-16: LGTM! Proper ESLint and Prettier integration.These changes follow best practices for coordinating ESLint with Prettier:
- Disabling
indentrule prevents conflicts since Prettier handles formatting- Adding
avoidEscape: trueto thequotesrule allows single quotes in strings when it avoids escaping (e.g.,"don't"instead of'don\'t')This improves the developer experience while maintaining code quality standards.
_layouts/team.html (1)
316-316: LGTM! Map URL updated to reflect current team locations.The update to the Google Maps embed URL (new map ID and domain change from .nl to .com) aligns with the team member additions in this PR. The iframe attributes remain properly configured with security and accessibility features intact.
README.md (1)
109-133: LGTM! Clear and helpful documentation.The documentation for
deploy.shis well-written and properly positioned:
- Clear explanation of features (port detection, live reload, auto-refresh)
- Positioned as the recommended approach while preserving the manual method
- Follows the existing documentation style
- Provides helpful context about port ranges and conflict resolution
This will improve the developer experience for new contributors.
_team/index.md (2)
108-133: LGTM! New team members properly formatted.Both new team member entries (Peter Croxford and Mark Boulogne) follow the established format consistently:
- Proper heading structure and styling
- GitHub links included
- Appropriate image attributes with lazy loading and dimensions
- Research interests clearly stated
- Use of anonymous.svg placeholder for Peter Croxford is a good practice when photos aren't available yet
The entries maintain consistency with the rest of the team page.
431-437: LGTM! Proper update to reflect Ph.D. completion.The update from "Pim J. Dekker M.Sc." to "Dr. Pim J. Dekker" appropriately reflects the completion of their Ph.D. The entry maintains consistent formatting with other alumni entries, and the updated position information is clearly presented.
.claude/commands/add-paper.md (1)
1-166: Comprehensive workflow documentation for adding research papers. ✓This documentation clearly defines the BibTeX-to-markdown conversion workflow with proper formatting rules, author truncation guidelines (et al. for 5+ authors), tag specifications, and badge generation. The example input/output aligns with best practices.
.claude/commands/add-person.md (1)
1-128: Comprehensive team member addition workflow. ✓Well-structured documentation covering all three categories (Present Team, Active Collaborations, Alumni) with clear formatting rules, image handling, icon references, and insertion guidelines. Aligns with project standards.
_research/index.md (3)
20-25: New topic tags and Featured tag management. ✓Five new topic tags (Elastic beads, Bouncing, Rupture, Marangoni flows, Numerical methods) are properly added and follow the tags format. Featured tag removed from [16] to maintain the max 2 Featured items on homepage—correct per PR objectives and learnings.
31-48: New preprint entries properly formatted. ✓Two new preprints (Dixit et al., Jana et al.) in Work in Progress section follow the specified HTML/Markdown template with correct author bolding, tags, badges (arXiv, GitHub, Blog), and embedded YouTube content. Formatting is consistent with project standards.
66-83: 2025 publications correctly added with proper badges and metadata. ✓Three 2025 papers ([19] Mclauchlan, [18] Saini, [17] Bashkatov) are properly formatted with journal badges (PNAS, J. Comput. Phys., Nat. Commun.), arXiv links, GitHub repos, and blog placeholders. Entry numbers and IDs are correctly assigned. Note: Address author list truncation for [17] per separate comment.
history.md (1)
25-35: News entries properly formatted with consistent styling. ✓Three new 2025 news items (November, September, August) follow the required "- " list format under "### Month Year" headers with proper blank-line spacing. Links, GitHub icons, thesis links with PDF styling, and award information are consistently formatted. Cross-references to research page (e.g.,
