# Blog Grid

3-up blog post cards with category badges.

**Technology:** Vanilla HTML/CSS/JS  
**Category:** sections / content  
**Design:** Neo-Brutalist (flat colors, hard shadows, bold borders)  
**Responsive:** Mobile-first (320px → 1920px)  
**Dark mode:** via `prefers-color-scheme`  

**Tags:** blog, grid, cards  
**Features:** light/dark, responsive

## Usage

1. Copy the contents of `code.html` into your page.
2. The section is self-contained (inline CSS + JS). No build step.
3. Tweak the CSS variables in `:root` to rebrand.
