# KH3 Website
A clean, minimal static website built with HTML, JavaScript, and Tailwind CSS for KH3 - Building Inspiring Spaces.
## Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- Node.js (for Tailwind CSS CLI)
- npm (comes with Node.js)
### Setup Instructions
1. **Clone or download the project**
```bash
git clone <repository-url>
cd kh3_website
```
2. **Install Tailwind CSS**
```bash
npm install
```
3. **Generate the optimized CSS**
```bash
npm run build
```
4. **Open the website**
- Open `index.html` in your web browser
- Or serve it with a local server

## Development
### For Active Development
If you're making frequent changes to the HTML, you can use watch mode to automatically regenerate CSS:
```bash
npm run watch
```
Keep this running in a terminal while you work. It will automatically rebuild the CSS whenever you save changes to your HTML files.
### Manual Regeneration
If watch mode doesn't work or you prefer manual control:
```bash
# One-time build
npm run build
# Watch mode (auto-regenerate on changes)
npm run watch
```
**Note:** If watch mode doesn't work, just run the one-time build command after each change.
### What This Does
- Scans your HTML files for used Tailwind classes
- Generates only the CSS you need (purges unused styles)
- Creates a tiny, optimized CSS file (~1KB vs ~3MB CDN)
## Features
- **Clean, minimal design** with Tailwind CSS
- **Optimized performance** with purged CSS
- **Responsive layout** that works on all devices
- **No build tools required** for production
- **Easy maintenance** with Tailwind utility classes
- **Custom animations** for logo, menu grid, and buttons
- **Auto-switching hero images with slide+zoom transitions**
- **Staggered loading animations**
- **Enhanced page transitions**
- **Letter-by-letter menu animations**
To add new Tailwind classes:
1. Add the classes to your HTML
2. Run the CSS generation command
3. The new styles will be included in the output
To modify the design:
1. Change Tailwind classes in HTML files
2. Regenerate CSS with the CLI command
3. Refresh your browser to see changes
## Custom Colors & Animations
The website uses custom KH3 brand colors and animations defined in `tailwind.config.js`:
- **Colors**: kh3-black, kh3-red, kh3-gold, kh3-darkGold, kh3-lightGold
- **Animations**: logo-float, text-float, border-glow, menu-grid-cycle, fade-in variants
## Production
For production deployment:
1. Run `npm run build` to generate the final CSS
2. Upload all files to your web server
3. The website will work without Node.js in production
