Soft cross-page navigation (View Transitions API).
Modern Chromium (126+) and Safari (18+) animate a cross-fade between
pages when this is opted in. Browsers without support silently ignore
the rule — no JS shim required. The navbar gets a transition-name so it
appears to persist (rather than re-paint) between pages in supporting
browsers. Paired with the html navy background above, the visual jump
from page to page becomes a soft fade instead of a white "burst".

main.js by setting `opacity: 0` after page paint and animating to 1 —
that caused a visible blink (paint → JS-snap-invisible → fade). Doing
it in CSS via @starting-style + @keyframes keeps the cards visible from
first paint and animates the entry without a snap. Browsers without
@starting-style support just see the cards appear without animation —
never invisible. */
