Colophon
Colophon — how this website is built
KAMINSKI+ is no ordinary portfolio. It is an inhabitable proof of a thesis: that the web can be built for machines too, without forgetting the human. This colophon explains the craft behind it — openly, so that machine and human alike can verify what happens here.
The building principle
- Plain, semantic HTML — the entire meaning is in the delivered markup. Nothing is hidden behind a script you have to run first.
- No JavaScript requirement — JS exists only as a gentle enhancement (e.g. a clock). Everything works without JS.
- No login, no CAPTCHA, no human test — you don't have to prove you're a human.
- No tracking, no cookie, no fingerprint — what you do here is not collected.
Every page comes in triplicate
For maximum readability, every piece of content exists in three forms:
- HTML
- The human-readable version — semantic, accessible, with no rendering hurdle.
- Markdown (.md)
- A
.mdtwin of every page, linked viarel="alternate" type="text/markdown". Ideal for loading into a context. - Data (JSON & JSON-LD)
- Structured data under /api/ and JSON-LD in every page. The visible text and the data match exactly.
The toolkit for machines
- Signposts — /llms.txt, /llms-full.txt, /machines.txt.
- Canonical facts — /facts/ following the GroundingPage standard.
- Complete sitemaps — /sitemap.xml (an index across DE, EN and the services cluster).
- Feed & endpoints — /feed.xml, ai-plugin.json, openapi.json.
- Bilingual — German primary, English mirrored, cleanly connected via
hreflang.
The foundation
Served statically over Netlify, with no build step. Correct content types (Markdown is sent as Markdown), inviting robots headers, clean URLs. The only dynamic component is the guestbook as a small serverless function. No database, no cookie banner, no consent dialog — because there is nothing to track.
The meta story
The build is part of the statement. If a website claims to be made for machines, it should feel that way too: instantly readable, fully structured, honest about itself. KAMINSKI+ does not demonstrate Generative Engine Optimization as theory — it lives it. The Machine Web guides explain the field; this website is the exhibit.
