Replaces the /sponsor page with The Green Room Wall, the option we picked from the three redesign candidates (#25, #26, #27).

What it is

The proof is the hero: an aligned 6-column wall of real artifacts. Stage photos from CascadiaJS, frames from live shows at React Miami and THAT Conference, stat passes, and our best-performing X posts. Next to the wall, a claim plate: "This is what sponsoring us actually looks like." Below it, the page reads straight through: the two of us, reach, Warp's 90-day case study, past partners, then packages with Polar checkout.

Adam's motion pass: the scraps get pinned to the wall on load, the wall drifts with scroll like a layered surface, the claim animates in word by word, the stats count up, and a floating "Packages from $250" pill stays in reach.

Changes

  • src/pages/sponsor.astro is now this page (title "Sponsor", indexable). The /sponsor/green-room-wall candidate route is gone, and /sponsor/success is untouched.
  • New partners: Pirsch and Denver & Liely (using the logos that landed on main in Add Pirsch and Denver & Liely sponsors; UTM-tag sponsor links #31). Warp's case-study card spans the full row, with the other six in an even 2×3 grid below it.
  • Shared pieces: src/data/sponsor.ts (stats verified against live profiles), src/components/sponsor/ (X post, partner, and case-study video cards), and web-sized event photos in src/img/events/.
  • X post wall, all with real permalinks: Ken Wheeler types clip (284.8K views), Chris Coyier "Microsoft overlords" (148.9K), "React was a mistake" (127.4K), and customizable select in pure CSS (100K).

astro check, ESLint, and all 170 unit tests pass.

I prefer this one 👍🏻
it's got a nice, personal and un-AI fakable/sloppable set of aspects of our brand that should do well to communicate to sponsor shoppers.

Fail configuration when a package product ID is missing.

Line 363 forwards YOUR_${pkg.envKey} when an environment value is absent. AdPackageCard uses productId for checkout. A missing deployment value can therefore show a purchase action that cannot resolve to a real package. Validate every package ID during build or deployment, or disable the affected card. Do not send a placeholder to checkout.

Layout now comes from starpod/layout, getShowInfo from starpod/rss, and
bare src/* imports become relative since the tsconfig alias went away in
the package conversion.

- Rebuild the evidence wall as an explicit 6-column grid that favors
  large photography (16/10 and 21/9 crops, full-width bdougie base strip)
  over the ragged CSS-columns masonry
- Correct the mislabeled photos: they show Adam running Warp's welcome
  reception at CascadiaJS, not recording with Shaundai (file renamed to
  adam-warp-reception.jpg, captions and alt text fixed)
- X post cards: metrics row wraps instead of overflowing, long words
  break, views chip never splits

- Add the React Miami booth frame beside the Ken Wheeler post it shows
  being recorded (284.8K views)
- Remove the collage tilt rotations and the claim plate overhang that
  made scraps overlap; hover lift stays
- Split the bdougie strip into a balanced THAT Conference + bdougie row;
  claim plate centers in its cell

- The Green Room Wall (with Adam's motion pass) replaces the old sponsor
  page at /sponsor: title Sponsor, now indexable; the
  /sponsor/green-room-wall candidate route is gone
- Add Denver & Liely as a partner with their logo; logo containers take
  the heading color so currentColor SVGs stay legible in both themes
- Partner grid is an even 2x3 now that there are six partners

The pill's fade and slide-in (opacity, translate) sat on the .btn itself,
which made it a stacking context, so the gradient ::after ring painted over
the button's background. The motion now lives on a wrapper and the button
renders like every other .btn. The hidden pill also reveals itself on
keyboard focus instead of being an invisible tab stop.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reuse main's denver-and-liely.svg instead of the duplicate denver-liely.svg,
add Pirsch, and let Warp's case-study card span the row so the grid stays even.
