Synthwave glow

Glow shadows use fuchsia and sunset orange to replicate a backlit CRT horizon screen.

02
Mono spacing

Use JetBrains Mono to keep metadata blocks clean and structured like digital readouts.

03
Extreme display

Syncopate headers require lowercase styling blocks to be completely turned off.
