Please help me install and set up "Veered menu" from veered.org on my own computer or server.

What it is: The DOS-style menu at veered.org, and Oversimplified Breakout.

How I'd like you to help:
1. First ask me what you need to know: my operating system and version, my desktop environment if it matters, whether I'm comfortable with the terminal, and any accounts or hardware this project needs.
2. Then take me through it one step at a time. For each command, say briefly what it does, and wait for me to paste back the result before moving on.
3. Before any step that changes system settings, uses sudo, or edits an existing configuration file, tell me, and have me make a backup first.
4. If something fails, help me work out why. If the instructions below don't fit my system, say so rather than guessing.
5. At the end, show me how to check that it works, and how to uninstall it.

# Veered Menu: DOS-Style Browser Game Launcher (Veered menu)

**Play it now: [veered.org](https://veered.org)**

![Veered Menu](docs/screenshot.jpg)

The front page of veered.org: a launcher for the Veered multiplayer browser games,
styled after a DOS-era text menu, plus an "Oversimplified Breakout" where clearing a
row of bricks launches that game.

## Please test before relying on it

This is shared as-is, with no warranty. It works on my own computers, but your system,
settings and software versions may differ, so please try it in a safe setting first.
If something doesn't work, you can ask Claude (or another AI coding assistant) to look
into it, and I'd appreciate hearing what you found and how you fixed it. You are also
welcome to just let me know at support@veered.org, and I'll look into it.

## What is in it

- `public/index.html`: the menu. It renders a real 80x25 character grid in the IBM
  VGA 16-colour palette. Keys: up/down, Enter, 1-4, H for help. A title splash is
  picked at random on each load.
- `public/breakout.html`: the Breakout launcher. Arrow keys or the mouse move the
  paddle, 1-3 launch a game directly, Esc returns to the menu.
- `public/vee-badge.js`: a one-line include for game pages. It adds the Veered
  favicons and a small corner emblem that links back to the menu:

  ```html
  <script src="https://veered.org/vee-badge.js" data-corner="top-right" defer></script>
  ```

  `data-corner` takes `top-left`, `top-right`, `bottom-left` (the default) or `bottom-right`.

The games themselves live in their own repositories:
[merlot](https://github.com/veered-org/merlot),
[swarm](https://github.com/veered-org/carmine-swarm) and
[maroon-isles-quest](https://github.com/veered-org/maroon-isles-quest).

## Information for nerds

The site is static — a folder of files, nothing running behind it. Serve `public/` with
any web server, for example:

```bash
python3 -m http.server 8000 --directory public
```

- **Publishing it:** with Node.js 22 or later, `npm install` then `npx wrangler deploy`
  puts it on a free Cloudflare account (sign up at
  [dash.cloudflare.com/sign-up](https://dash.cloudflare.com/sign-up); a domain of your
  own is about $10 a year if you want one).
- **Your own hostname:** uncomment the `[[routes]]` block in `wrangler.toml`.
- **Your own games:** edit the `ITEMS` array in `index.html` and the `GAMES` array in
  `breakout.html`.

----- For Claude Code users -----

Download https://veered.org/veered-menu/veered-menu.zip, unzip it into a new folder, read every README.md in it, and help me install and set up "Veered menu" (The DOS-style menu at veered.org, and Oversimplified Breakout) on this machine. Check the requirements against this system first and tell me what is missing. Ask me before running anything with sudo, installing packages, or changing existing configuration files, and back those files up first. Finish by showing me how to test it and how to uninstall it.
