For developers
Small surface area, fewer surprises.
Mahaut keeps the core easy to read: routes, controllers, middleware, views, and assets. No database is required for the promo site.
For AI agents
Context that explains itself.
Agent-focused docs, examples, and llms.txt tell coding tools where to look and what rules to follow.
