Rewrote the README to actually tell the story — from “way too extra” to stripped down and fast

Went back through and rewrote the whole README instead of just patching the stack table. The old version was still describing the Framer Motion / matrix rain / glitch loader era even after most of that got ripped out — docs had drifted from what the site actually does.

What’s in it

• Origin story section — laid out the actual arc: started with zero Next.js/React experience, went overboard with a full boot loader, matrix rain, glitch text, parallax orbs, 3D-tilt avatar, mouse-tracked glow cards, background video — then got told the UI was too heavy and stripped it all back to plain CSS hover states and server components.
• Mail server callout — pulled the SMTP/Postfix/Brevo relay work (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) out as its own section since that was the actually hard part of this project, not the frontend.
• Updated section list — Hero, About, Skills, Experience, Projects, CTF, Blog, Uses, Contact — added the new /uses page and dropped references to features that no longer exist.
• Stack table cleaned up — removed Framer Motion entirely, added fonts (Inter + JetBrains Mono), content pipeline (blog posts as data via react-markdown), and domain info.
• Dev setup switched to pnpm — pnpm install / pnpm dev / pnpm check instead of npm, matching the actual workspace config.
• Real project structure — updated the tree to match current src/app, src/components, src/lib layout instead of the old flat structure.
• “What I’d do differently” section — added a retro-style note: start simpler, ship the blog earlier, set up pnpm check from day one instead of relying on build to catch mistakes.

Why this fits

Docs that describe features you already deleted are worse than no docs — anyone landing on the repo (recruiter, hiring manager, another dev) would’ve read about a matrix-rain loader that doesn’t exist anymore. Rewriting it to match reality, and being upfront about the “too extra” phase instead of hiding it, is the same instinct as the frontend rework itself: cut what doesn’t need to be there.
