🎨 Technical Approach Planning

HTML Generation Strategy

  1. Template System: Create base HTML template with similarity navigation
  2. Static Generation: Pre-generate all pages for fast loading
  3. URL Structure: Hierarchical paths matching poem organization
  4. Responsive Design: Mobile-first approach with clean typography
  5. Similarity Integration: Top-N recommendations with fallback to full list

File Organization Plan

├── index.html (main entry point)
├── poems/
│   ├── category/
│   │   ├── poem-id.html (individual poem pages)
│   │   └── index.html (category listings)
│   └── similar/
│       └── poem-id/
