⚠️ Archived — This repository has been retired. data/projects.yaml has been migrated directly into ibtisam-iq/projects. This repo is kept for historical reference only.

silver-ops

Personal ops control plane for ibtisam-iq.com and its sub-sites.

This repository is the single source of truth for all content and data that drives Muhammad Ibtisam's public-facing sites. It holds no application code — only structured data that other repositories consume at build time.

---

Why This Exists

Sites like projects.ibtisam-iq.com are built with React. Without this repo, adding a new project would mean editing TypeScript source code, committing to the app repo, and triggering a rebuild — every single time.

silver-ops eliminates that. You edit a YAML file here. Everything else is automatic.

This is the same principle as MkDocs — content and code are completely decoupled.

---

How It Works

You edit data/projects.yaml
        ↓
GitHub Actions detects the change (path filter)
        ↓
Fires a repository_dispatch to ibtisam-iq/projects
        ↓
projects site fetches this YAML, generates TypeScript, builds, deploys
        ↓
projects.ibtisam-iq.com is live with your update (~2 min)
