Major rewrite (!)

[rstacruz]

Context

• Up to this day, Devhints has been using Jekyll 2.x. (As of April 2024, the latest is Jekyll 4.3.3. Jekyll 3.0.0 was released 2015.)

• The JavaScript build system has been very convoluted involving Parcel and Jekyll.

Solution

This PR is a major rewrite of the underlying technology to use Astro 4.

• Same UI, same frontend, different technology
• No changes to cheatsheet format

Why?

• The Jekyll+Parcel stack was brittle and difficult to extend
• Using a modern framework like Astro opens up to future possibilities, like using React or MDX
