I have AstroJS/Starlight documentation site. It works. But hey, new versions everywhere in the deps tree. Gotta incorporate brand new incompatible Tailwind v4 config.

Oh yeah, it was to not to have to be worried about all the intrinsics of CSS and needing expert design skills. I selected it to be able to just write tech docs in an out-of-the-box techdocs-site product. And give different color here and there, to be pleasing to the eye.
That's all I want really.
