Questions

Why are the project covers not screenshots?

Each cover is a small product interface built in HTML and CSS with data from your domain. It stays sharp at every size, matches the site's colors and never shows private data from a real screen.

Do I need PopNow for this?

No. The bundled stone and sand backdrops are reusable for your projects, and talks can use drawn thumbnails. PopNow is optional for new backdrops, a desk photo or a regraded portrait, and every run is priced first.

What if I have no talks or open-source repos?

Sections without real content are removed together with their links. The skill never invents talks, repos, star counts or clients for a real person.

Can it go into my existing Next.js app?

Yes. It detects the stack, keeps unrelated files and rebuilds the same routes as real pages with the same tokens and fonts.
