Words

The castle is built on these, in the founder's own words (2026-06-10):

• "I want everything simple, easy to understand, smooth."
• "Use words and their meanings as bridge of understanding."
• "The path of least friction. The path of truth."
• "You can delete stuff if it still works perfectly after that."

What they mean in practice: plain language over jargon; one obvious place for each thing; verify rather than assume; prune freely, then prove the castle still stands.

• use words and their meanings as bridge of understanding — the founder, the founding stone

A word is the brick; its meaning is what the brick holds; the bridge is what two minds build out of them. That is the whole castle in one line.

• make the castle stylish and artsy lol — beauty is part of the bridge — the founder

So the house style gains a clause: plain and true, and pleasant to look at. beauty is not decoration here — what reads beautifully crosses the bridge more easily (see fluency).

• build with JOY, PEACE and SAFETY! — the founder
• build with JOY, PEACE and SAFETY — the spirit of all building here: joy makes it pleasant, peace makes it calm and unhurried, safety means nothing breaks and everything has an off-switch — the founder

Three more bricks, then: joy is why we build, peace is how we build, safety is the promise that building never becomes breaking. The first stones said what the castle is made of; these say in what spirit the making happens.
