Reworks the Micro per the new brief: a long, narrow extruded-aluminium bar you
patch into your signal instead of a little box.
- Better display: amber 4-char 14-segment (Adafruit font) that shows BPM *and*
short track names, replacing the 3-digit 7-segment. Off-segments kept very dim
so the lit digits read clearly.
- Roller instead of knob: a recessed, clickable horizontal thumb-roller —
roll = tempo, press = start/stop, hold + roll = switch track.
- New form/I-O: 1/4" TRS in on one end; USB-C + 1/4" TRS out on the other;
USB-C or 2×AA power (battery gauge on the face). Click is summed into the
signal in the analog domain (+ a small monitor speaker).
info-micro, concepts and the landing card updated to match; BOM reworked
(analog path + 2 jacks + 2×AA + 14-seg) → ≈ $38.

The site now opens on a proper front door: a hero (logo + tagline + pitch),
an "Open the Editor →" CTA, and form-factor cards (Editor, Stage, Micro, Embed)
linking out to each page + info. The PE-1 editor app moves from index.html to
editor.html; every "Editor"/"Open" link, the embed.js editor variant, and the
editor's own brand-logo (now → /) are repointed. build.sh + deploy.sh build and
publish both index.html (landing) and editor.html (app).

Each form factor now has an information page (purpose + live embedded widget),
with priced BOMs only on the buildable hardware (Stage ≈$59, Micro ≈$28):
- info-editor.html / info-initial.html — purpose only (web app / concept)
- info-stage.html — purpose + the priced BOM moved out of stage.html
- info-micro.html — purpose + a new ~$28 practice-unit BOM
stage.html drops the BOM panel (+ its .bom CSS) and gains a "Spec & BOM" link;
the shared .bom/.sub table CSS lives in src/base.css. "Info" added to every
page nav and to the concept cards. Wired into build.sh + deploy.sh.

- Every form factor supports ?embed=1: a head flag (set on <html>, no flash)
strips the site chrome (base.css [data-embed]) + page-specific panels, leaving
just the widget, and posts its height so the host can auto-size it.
- Config/settings string preloads via the existing #p=/#sl= hash. Added that
hash handling to micro.html (it previously only loaded built-in tracks).
- New embed.js loader: <div data-varasys-metronome="micro" data-patch="…"> + one
<script> → an auto-sizing iframe to <page>?embed=1#p=…. New embed.html documents
it and dogfoods a live embedded widget.
- "Embed" nav link added across pages; build.sh/deploy.sh build embed.html and
serve embed.js.

- Shared site header in src/base.css (.site-head/.site-nav/.brand-logo + theme-
aware logo + .tbtn). Applied to player/stage/micro (replacing their text
topbars) so the VARASYS logo + tagline + Editor/Concepts nav is on every page.
- Rebrand the editor: "Stackable Metronome" → "PE-1 — PolyMeter Editor" (title +
h1), with a Concepts link in its header.
- New concepts.html — the PolyMeter Concepts library: cards for the editor and
each form factor (PM-1 Initial/Stage, PM-µ Micro) + a "more coming" card.
- build.sh + deploy.sh build/deploy concepts.html; deploy.sh now loops over pages.

Replace the shiny brushed-aluminium look with a bead-blasted matte-black
anodised finish on both the stage and micro mockups:
- flat dark graphite case + a fine bead-blast micro-texture, and the specular
top highlight removed, so the case doesn't reflect stage lights;
- light laser-etched legend colour (--silk) and the light VARASYS logo variant
on the dark case; lighter metallic rims on the top-edge connector openings so
they read on black;
- stage BOM enclosure + comments updated to "die-cast aluminium, bead-blasted,
matte-black Type II anodise, laser-etched legends".

- Rename player-asbuilt.html → stage.html (the pedalboard build). Update
build.sh + deploy.sh (deploy now also removes the old player-asbuilt.html
from the web root) and the cross-links in player.html / stage.html.
- New /micro.html — a stripped-down home-practice metronome on the same RP2040
firmware. Hardware is just: ONE depressable scroll/rotary encoder, a red
7-segment LED display, a speaker, and USB-C for power. The encoder does
everything: spin = tempo, press = start/stop, hold + spin = switch track
(the LED shows the track number, with BPM / TRACK / ▶ indicators). Tracks =
the editor's seed grooves flattened (23). Shares src/engine.js, setlists.js,
base.css; synth-only; steady practice loop (ramps/bars ignored).
