Working on a tool to index every lexicon on the @atproto.com network.
Currently, there are a total of 561 valid lexicons (that conform to the specification) and 31 invalid lexicons.

I wonder why we must always have symmetrical margins, many old books certainly don't. This is a experiment to extend the golden ratio to govern how available blank spaces grow to induce a sense of motion

While strict golden-ratio alignment isn’t feasible on a phone screen, the principle of using φ to govern critical alignments still stands. When key elements share φ-based relationships along at least one axis, the layout preserves much of the geometric rhythm & optical stability
