The interface is translated through @nuxtjs/i18n: strings live in
i18n/locales/*.json, routes are prefixed except for the default English, and
useLocaleHead emits the lang attribute, the hreflang alternates and og:locale.
The switcher is a native select rather than a custom dropdown: keyboard
support, the platform picker on mobile and correct labelling come for free.
Article content stays single-language — this translates the site chrome only.
The browser never talks to Strapi: pages call Nitro endpoints under
server/api/, which are the only place Strapi queries are built. That keeps the
Strapi URL internal to the Docker network and avoids CORS entirely.
Article bodies are rendered from Markdown to HTML in the endpoint, so the
content is server-rendered and crawlable, marked stays out of the client
bundle, and the meta description is derived from the opening of the body.
Pages carry canonical URLs, Open Graph tags and BlogPosting structured data,
and handle empty, missing and failed states.
