# End-to-End Pilots Complete — 2026-04-06

## Milestone: Both End-to-End Pilots Delivered

### Pilot A — CMS Marketing Landing Page (Issue #1)
- **Commit**: 2fe71c3
- **Surface**: Astro 6 + EmDash CMS at apps/cms-theme/
- **Validates**: Full CMS delivery lifecycle — EmDash seed → SQLite → Astro → shared tokens → shared UI → build
- **Sections**: Hero (CMS-driven), Features (4x Card), Stats (gradient), CTA (Button)
- **Components used**: Button (primary/secondary), Card
- **Token consumption**: 100% — zero hardcoded values

### Pilot B — Interactive Project Dashboard (Issue #2)
- **Commit**: f8c6354
- **Surface**: Next.js 15 + React 19 at apps/web/
- **Validates**: Shared UI component system with client-side interactivity
- **Features**: Tab nav, status filters, stats header, project card grid
- **Components used**: Button, Card, Tabs (all 3 shared primitives)
- **Token consumption**: 100% — all CSS custom properties from token pipeline
- **Build**: Static generation succeeds

### Architecture Validated
1. Token pipeline: tokens.json → tokens.css → consumed by both surfaces
2. Shared UI: packages/ui/ components used by both Next.js and Astro
3. CMS content: EmDash getEmDashEntry() pulls seed content at render time
4. Multi-surface: Same tokens + components serve two different frameworks
