jimmy 509e7ccb43 Add Technical Kiwi website with Go, templ, and HTMX.
Single-page site with gallery by album and event, contact form over SMTP,
Docker dev/prod setup, and on-server image derivatives. Gallery photos stay
local (app/images/ is gitignored).

# Technical Kiwi Limited — Website
A small business site built with **Go**, [**templ**](https://templ.guide/) (server-side HTML templates), and [**HTMX**](https://htmx.org/) for gallery interactions.
## Requirements
- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and Docker Compose
## Quick start
```bash
cp .env.example .env # optional SMTP settings
make dev # live reload → http://localhost:7331
```
## Make targets
| Target | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `make dev` | Dev with Air + templ browser live reload (default) |
| `make build` | Build production `website` image |
| `make up` | Run production `website` service |
| `make down` | Stop compose services |
| `make generate` | Run `templ generate` in dev container |
| `make tidy` | Run `go mod tidy` in dev container |
| `make logs` | Follow dev container logs |
## Features
- Single-page layout: hero, services, gallery, contact
- Gallery loads via HTMX (`hx-get="/gallery"`)
- Year filters without full page reload
- Lightbox modal with previous/next navigation
- Contact form with SMTP relay (HTMX submit, no page reload)
- Serves photos from `app/images/`
## Contact form (SMTP)
Set relay details in `.env`:
| Variable | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `SMTP_HOST` | Relay hostname (required) |
| `SMTP_PORT` | Port (default `587`) |
| `SMTP_USER` / `SMTP_PASSWORD` | Auth if your relay requires it |
| `SMTP_FROM` | Envelope/header From address (required) |
| `SMTP_TO` | Where contact messages are delivered (required) |
| `SMTP_TLS` | `auto`, `tls` (465), or `plain` (25/local relay) |
If SMTP is not configured, the page shows a mailto fallback instead of the form.
## Dev container
`make dev` mounts `./app` and your host Go caches (`~/go/pkg/mod`, `~/.cache/go-build` by default). Override with `GOMODCACHE` / `GOCACHE` in `.env`.
**Use [http://localhost:7331](http://localhost:7331)** in the browser — the templ proxy injects live reload on `.templ`, `.go`, and `.css` changes. Port 8080 hits the app directly without auto-reload.
Only run **`dev`** or **`website`** at a time if you map both to the same host ports.
Production `website` joins the external `caddy` Docker network for reverse proxy labels.

```
## Gallery images
On startup the server builds JPEG thumbnails in `app/images/thumbs/` (max 480px edge) for the grid and hero. The lightbox still loads full-resolution originals. Thumbnails are gitignored and regenerated when source photos change.
## Deploy notes
First request after deploy may take a moment while thumbnails are generated if they are not baked into the image yet.
