Open work, carried over from the README's TODO list when the README became a project
overview rather than a working document. This is the current list; docs/build-log.md
is the historical record and its Phase 8 backlog is kept as-written for that reason.
- Implement feature flag–driven hero experiments (replace hardcoded variants)
- Evaluate hero experiment winner after 2 weeks / 200+ primary CTA clicks per variant; promote winner to default, retire losing variant URLs
- Expand calming category: individual converter pages for anxiety-wraps, calming-treats, lick-mats, snuffle-mats (parallel to cooling converter structure)
- Defer PostHog init (idle + interaction fallback); monitor early-bounce event loss and feature-flag flicker
- Align Astro and MDX peer versions: use
@astrojs/mdxv4 with the current Astro 5 stack, or upgrade Astro and its official integrations to v6 together - Content idea: dog sleep and activity trackers (from Ben's 2026-05-08 story list; the Fi collar review covers fitness tracking, nothing covers sleep yet)
- Add third pillar: Relaxing — dog beds, plush toys, snuggly blankets, and cozy comfort gear
- Connect Vercel project and set up auto-deploy from
main - Point
chill-dogs.comdomain to Vercel; confirm SSL - Set up analytics — PostHog (primary) via
src/components/Analytics.astrowith globalinit()anddata-trackevent delegation - Set up PostHog reverse proxy — managed proxy at
woof.chill-dogs.comactive;api_hostupdated inAnalytics.astro - Add OG image (
/public/og-default.jpg) - Add favicon (
/public/favicon.ico) - Generate per-page OG images with dynamic headline + CTA text
(
src/scripts/generate-og-images.mjs) - Review affiliate tag is active and approved in Amazon Associates dashboard
(
chill-dogs-20) - Set up IndexNow for instant search engine indexing on deploy (Bing, Yandex, etc.)
- Redo the entire article about Thundershirt alternatives
