The human asked for a demo extensive enough to review by hand, tracked as files, and kept current the way docs are. Generated filler cannot be reviewed — you cannot read a Go function and see what a reader sees — so the generator is deleted and `examples/demo-site/` is an ordinary site: 33 Markdown files, six pictures, site.yaml, a template override and static files. My reason for generating it was ADR-0011, and I had that rule wrong: it puts the *author's site root* outside this repository, not fixtures. conventions.md already keeps golden files in testdata/, and this is the same category one size up. Keeping both a generator and files would have been two sources of truth, so one had to go. Kept true by two gates rather than by good intentions. A table-driven test in internal/web serves the directory through the real handler with one case per feature — thirty-five of them, each naming what it proves — and verify.sh runs `khosra check` over it and fails on anything fatal. Adding a feature now means adding it to the demo and adding its case, and the build says so if you don't. Extensive on purpose: eleven dated posts so a section actually paginates, a four-chapter series so first/last are not the neighbours, a gallery with three JPEGs and an SVG so both the resampled and the untouched paths show, a Bengali-only bundle, a titleless status, a draft, a future date, an include, a nested extras tree, and a typography page that demonstrates what the engine will not do. Two expectations of mine were wrong and the demo corrected them: the site's own list template overrides *tag* listings too, so there are no group headings there — which turns out to be the better demonstration of ADR-0046, since the theme picking the flat shape is exactly the point. And template literal text is not escaped, so an apostrophe stays an apostrophe.

examples/
demo-site/ is a complete khosra site, kept here to be read and served — the demonstration a person walks
through to see what the engine does, and the fixture the engine tests itself against (ADR-0051).
make demo # serves it at localhost:8080
khosra check -site examples/demo-site
It is content, not a fixture in disguise: every file is what an author would write. Two things keep it honest,
both in verify.sh:
TestTheExampleSiteExercisesEveryFeature(ininternal/web) serves this directory through the real handler and asserts one case per feature. A feature that changes shape breaks it.khosra checkruns over it and must report nothing fatal.
Adding a feature means adding it here, with a case in that test. A feature the example does not show is a feature nobody can see working, and the gates are what stop that from being optional.
What each part is for
| Path | Demonstrates |
|---|---|
site.yaml |
the two site-level settings: base and title |
content/posts/day-01…11 |
pagination — eleven dated posts against a page size of ten |
content/posts/first-light/ |
two languages, a directory bundle owning a picture, a figure with a caption |
content/posts/only-english |
the fallback chain, and a canonical link naming the variant actually served |
content/posts/renamed-thing/ |
slug moving an address, aliases keeping the old one working |
content/posts/unfinished |
a draft: invisible without -dev on |
content/posts/scheduled |
a future date: published by the clock, with nothing to run |
content/comics/the-long-monsoon/ |
a series — structural membership, sparse order, prev/next/first/last, an archive, and a landing page in two languages |
content/art/monsoon-studies/ |
a gallery: three JPEGs sized into a srcset, and an SVG left exactly as drawn |
content/writing/notes-on-water/ |
an include whose fragment has no URL, and an extras/ tree with a nested directory |
content/writing/typography |
what the engine does to prose, and what it deliberately does not |
content/pages/* |
undated bundles: reachable, and absent from every feed |
content/pages/bengali-only |
a bundle that exists in one non-default language only |
content/status/* |
a titleless bundle — legal, and the one check warning this site expects |
templates/list.html |
overriding a single named block and inheriting the document |
static/note.txt |
files served verbatim |
The one expected warning
khosra check reports the titleless status note. That is deliberate: titleless is legal, the theme falls back
to the bundle's key, and the warning exists so an author who did not mean it finds out. A fatal finding here
would fail verify.sh.
