Text & prose
Words rather than grids: mission, about, certification texts, questions and answers.

Prose — a text section: kicker, title and lead, then markdown in a reading column. The section for anything that is words rather than a grid. Use for: mission, about us, a certification text, terms, a long explanation, a page that is mostly paragraphs. Not for: a first screen (<HeroText>); a list of parallel points (<FeatureList>); questions and answers (<Faq>). Children: markdown between the tags — paragraphs, headings, lists, links, emphasis, tables, code. Also the sub-block tags <ProseItem> (a titled sub-section) and <ProseAside> (a card floated beside the text). Layout: align="center" (default) centers the heading and the text; align="left" is the shape for long reading. `width="text"` keeps a comfortable reading measure, `width="wide"` uses the whole print zone — use "wide" together with a <ProseAside>. `heading` aligns the heading independently (a centered heading over a left-aligned body is the certification-page shape). Picture: `image` (file name in images/) is shown under the text — a certificate scan, a schema. Links: `linkText` + `href` render an arrow link; primary/secondary buttons follow under the text.
WHY WE BUILT IT
A thermometer is not a decision
Growers used to choose between a thermometer that told them nothing and a research mast nobody could afford.
Nordvind sits in between: the sensors that change a decision, and none of the ones that only look good on a datasheet.
- Frost, wind, rain and leaf wetness — inside the crop
- One battery per season, one bolt per station
- Readings exported as CSV, PDF or through the API
Faqpopularsections/Faq.astrosub-blocks: Questionon 2 sites of the fleet
Faq — questions and answers as an accordion (native <details>, no JavaScript), on a rounded grey panel under the section heading. Use for: FAQ, "common questions", objections handled one by one. Children: <Question q="…">markdown answer</Question> tags; or the `items` prop with plain-text pairs when the answers need no markdown. Both may be combined — `items` render first.
Questions growers ask first
If yours is not here, write to us — we answer in a day.
Does it work without mobile coverage?
Yes. The station talks to a gateway on a licence-free band, and the gateway keeps a week of readings when the uplink drops. Nothing is lost while the network is away.
How long does the battery last?
A full season. The station reports its own battery level, and we send a replacement before it becomes your problem.
Can I take the data with me?
Always. Export as CSV or PDF, or read it through the API. The readings belong to the farm, not to us.
What happens if a sensor breaks?
You hear about it from us first. The spare fits in a pocket and swaps by hand — no tools, no service visit.
