Rework the homepage IA so the site feels like a personal website, not only a blog #28

Description

@jacobra19

Summary

The site currently behaves primarily like a blog, even though it also serves as a personal website.

Evidence

  • The blog is mounted at / via routeBasePath: '/'
  • The homepage is effectively a chronological blog index rather than a landing page for Yakov as a person/professional

Why This Matters

  • A personal website usually benefits from a strong landing page with identity, focus areas, projects, and contact paths
  • The current structure undersells the portfolio/personal-brand side of the site

Suggested Direction

  • Decide on the desired information architecture explicitly
  • Consider making / a true personal landing page and moving the blog to /blog
  • If routes change, plan redirects carefully so existing post URLs are preserved or redirected cleanly

Acceptance Criteria

  • The site’s intended IA is documented
  • The homepage presents Yakov as a person/professional, not only a post feed
  • If blog routes change, redirects are in place for existing URLs
