A static Next.js site wrapped in preload links and CSS modules—zero backend, zero moat, weekend of hype.

The site itself is trivial to rebuild, but Ghostty's moat is bulletproof: you cannot clone a thriving open-source community, the founder's reputation (Mitchel Humphreys), or the 5+ years of native terminal engineering and GPU acceleration already shipped.

Technical evidenceShow
A prompt can rebuild

A Next.js marketing site with clean typography, hero section, and navigation. The page renders server-side with standard React components and CSS modules.

What you can't see

No backend infrastructure detected—no auth, databases, APIs, payments, or real-time services. The site is purely static content served by Next.js with no persistent state or user data handling.

You could build it — but that moat means you can't win. Find a better bet.
