FAQ pattern
Compact Accordions
What does the visual system need to do?
It needs to sell the workshop first while supporting future reference, how-to, safety, comparison, and journal content without looking like a different website.
What images belong in the system?
Use real Sacred Smoke workshop, incense, table, ingredient, kit, and guest imagery. Avoid generic wellness imagery unless it has a direct brand purpose.
What is the speed rule?
Static HTML first, fixed image dimensions, local optimized assets, deferred optional scripts, and a one-second max page-load goal.
