D005: Contact via serverless + Resend
Context: Site must make contacting Saif effortless, and the contact surface should itself demonstrate craft.
Options considered:
- Direct links only (mailto/LinkedIn/Calendly), zero backend, but no craft showcase.
- Form + serverless function + Resend, a real form with full states.
- Form + Calendly embed too.
Decision: Form on one Vercel serverless function + Resend (chosen by Saif), direct links alongside. See Contact Form.
Why: A form that handles loading/success/error + validation + spam protection perfectly is a live, unfakeable sample of engineering standards, D001 - Site as Proof Principle in action. No DB needed.
Trade-offs: a tiny bit more surface to maintain than pure links; worth it. Consent posture still open (Open Questions #6).
