How this site is built.
This page is my best reference project: it shows how I work before we have exchanged a single word. Fully animated and still loaded in under a second — that is not a contradiction, it is engineering.
The bill of materials
- Astro 7 — static HTML, no client framework in the delivery path
- Tailwind CSS 4 with a custom token system
- GSAP 3.15 as a single lazy island, loaded only after the page is done
- 4 self-hosted WOFF2 subsets, under 90 KB total — no Google CDN
- Vercel, serverless region Frankfurt (fra1)
- Serverless function with honeypot, time trap and Cloudflare Turnstile
- Vercel Web Analytics — cookieless, aggregated, no IP storage
Budgets the build enforces
- under 1.8 s (CI-enforced)
- under 0.05
- 0 — hence no cookie banner
- 0
- the build fails if any category drops below 95
Bauer IT Solutions builds client projects with the same discipline: measurable budgets instead of promises, documented architecture instead of a black box. See how I work or the website service.
