* feat(web): overhaul SEO structure and landing pages

Add distro-specific install pages and an engine comparison hub to capture high-intent organic queries. Centralize metadata and structured data handling to improve crawl consistency, internal linking, and rich-result eligibility.

* feat(web): add subpage navigation and visual polish

Make SEO landing pages easier to discover and navigate by adding persistent subpage header/footer links to home and key routes. Refresh install and comparison pages with colorful icon-driven sections while expanding homepage footer links for stronger internal linking.

* fix(ci): make web version sync robust to schema location

CI assumed softwareVersion lived in layout.tsx, but SEO refactors moved SoftwareApplication JSON-LD to page.tsx. Update workflow sync steps to patch whichever file currently contains softwareVersion so website build and release jobs keep working.

* chore(web): remove SEO audit artifact

Drop the internal SEO audit markdown from the PR so only production website and workflow changes are included.

Vocalinux Website

This is the official website for Vocalinux, a voice-to-text application for Linux systems. The website is built with Next.js and can be deployed as a static site to GitHub Pages.

🚀 Quick Start

Development

npm install
npm run dev

Building for Production

npm install
npm run build

The static files will be generated in the out/ directory.

📦 Deployment to GitHub Pages

  1. Push your changes to the main or master branch
  2. GitHub Actions will automatically build and deploy your site to the gh-pages branch
  3. Custom Domain: The site is configured for vocalinux.com
  4. The site will be available at https://vocalinux.com

Manual Deployment

If you prefer to deploy manually:

  1. Build the static site:

    cd web
    npm install
    npm run deploy
    
  2. The build includes:

    • Static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files in out/
    • .nojekyll file for GitHub Pages compatibility
    • CNAME file pointing to vocalinux.com

Local Testing

To test the built site locally:

cd web/out
python3 -m http.server 3000

Then visit http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

🛠️ Build Scripts

  • npm run dev - Start development server
  • npm run build - Build static site for production
  • npm run deploy - Build and prepare for GitHub Pages (adds .nojekyll and CNAME)
  • npm run lint - Run ESLint
  • npm run typecheck - Run TypeScript type checking

  • Dark/Light Theme - Automatic theme switching
  • Modern UI - Built with Tailwind CSS and Framer Motion
  • SEO Optimized - Proper meta tags and structure
  • Fast Loading - Optimized static generation

🔧 Configuration

Custom Domain

If you want to use a custom domain:

  1. Update the deploy script in package.json to include your domain:

    "deploy": "next build && touch out/.nojekyll && echo 'yourdomain.com' > out/CNAME"
    
  2. Configure your domain's DNS to point to GitHub Pages

Base Path

If deploying to a subdirectory, update next.config.js:

const config = {
  basePath: '/your-subdirectory',
  // ... other config
}

🐛 Troubleshooting

Build Issues

  • "Module not found": Run npm install to ensure all dependencies are installed
  • TypeScript errors: Run npm run typecheck to see detailed type errors
  • ESLint errors: Run npm run lint:fix to automatically fix common issues

Deployment Issues

  • 404 on GitHub Pages: Ensure .nojekyll file exists in the out/ directory
  • Assets not loading: Check that basePath is correctly configured in next.config.js
  • Blank page: Check browser console for JavaScript errors
