 All other non-content files are stored in `assets/`, which is set up in `.eleventy.js` to be passed through to `public/`. A brief overview of each of the folders within `assets/`, and any relevant notes, is provided below:
 
--   `css/` - SASS/LESS files from the `less/` or `sass/` directories are built into `css/`. From here, the CSS is processed as an Eleventy template, where we minify the code (production only), and pass it through to `public/`. **Do not** make CSS changes here - instead, use the SASS or LESS asset directory (depending on which kit you're using).
--   `favicons/` - Any favicon files can be stored here. We recommend using [this tool](https://realfavicongenerator.net/) to generate favicons for all devices.
--   `fonts/` - If you have any non-standard fonts you wish to locally host, you can put the files here. You can use [this tool](https://gwfh.mranftl.com/fonts) to download font files to be stored in `fonts/`, as well as generate the code to be put in your `root.scss` or `root.less` file.
--   `images/` - Any images can go here. No processing will occur.
--   `js/` - Put any JavaScript in this directory. It will be processed, bundled, and minified by esbuild.
--   `sass/` or `less/` - Depending on whether you're using the SASS or LESS version of the kit, you'll find your preprocessor files in one of these directories. Make your changes to styling here, not in `assets/css`
--   `svgs/` - A separate directory for SVGs. This makes it easier to bulk-compress SVGs separate from `images/` if you're using a tool like [compressor.io](https://compressor.io/).

-You may notice around the project (e.g., `./src/config/server.js` and `.eleventy.js`) that there is reference to an `isProduction` variable. This is used to control some functionality that is only run while the website is "in production". For example, when `npm run build` is used, we can assume the website is deployed to a live domain, so we can do things like minify the code. This allows comments to be shown in the dev tools while you're actively working on the site but have them removed, and the code minified, for the smallest file sizes and most efficiency when you deploy it.

 The `_includes` directory contains pieces of HTML code that you want to share between multiple pages. This code could be small components (a button or a loading spinner), larger sections (header, footer, or a stitch from [CodeStitch](https://codestitch.app/)), or a layout containing a reusable `<head>` element with all necessary meta tags.
 
-By default, the kit has two sub-directories in `_includes` - one for components and one for layouts.
+By default, the kit has three sub-directories in `_includes` - `components/` for reusable pieces like featured posts and schema markup, `layouts/` for page layouts, and `sections/` for shared page sections like the header, footer, and CTA.
 
-Components can be used on one, none, or many pages. For example, we've set up a header and a footer that we load on all pages (through `_includes/layouts/base.html`). If you want to make a change to the header or footer, you can do so within `_includes/components`, and this change will be reflected across all pages. This is done by using `{% include "components/header.html" %}`. If you want to adjust some of the data within the component (e.g., a button that has the same structure/core styles but different CTA text), you should look into using a [Nunjucks Macro](https://mozilla.github.io/nunjucks/templating#macro), which you can [import](https://mozilla.github.io/nunjucks/templating#import) where needed.
+Sections are loaded on all pages through `_includes/layouts/base.html`.

 Layouts define the wider page structure. The main one used in this kit is `base.html`, which contains the document type declaration, `<head>` tag with associated `<meta>` tags (using data in `_data/client.js` and the page front matter), a `<body>` with a `<main>` tag and skip-to-content link, and calls to the header and footer. All pages use `base.html`. This has been configured to work automatically, so you shouldn't need much additional work. For the blog, we have also created a `post.html` layout (which also uses the `base.html` file, through Nunjucks' `{% extends %}`) that we use to render the blog article pages.

-##### Navigations - Rendering Automatically
+##### Navigations
 
-One thing you may notice in the `\_includes/header.html` file is the vast amount of Nunjucks code in the `cs-ul-wrapper` element. This is code that makes use of the `eleventyNavigation` object and keys in the frontmatter of all pages that are, by default, added to the kit. This is part of the Eleventy Navigation plugin, which allows us to create scalable navigation menus without having to constantly add new list items and dropdowns to the header whenever a new page is made. If you make a new page using the `\_template.txt` file in `content/pages`, you will be guided to add this information into the front matter, where the navigation will be remade with the new page data automatically.
-
-If you wish to use this kit, and benefit from this way of doing navigations but want to swap out the navigation for another one in the CodeStitch template library, you can copy the `cs-ul-wrapper` `<div>` element that's found in the kit and replace the `cs-ul-wrapper` in the new stitch. As the class system is the same with all Stitches, the auto-rendering functionality, including the application of active-style classes and dropdowns (if a "dropdown" Stitch is used) will remain the same.

-<a name="nav-manual"></a>
-
-##### Navigations - Rendering Manually
-
-Some developers may wish to continue with the "old school" way of rendering navigations and add the HTML for new navigation links to the header individually. This is fine to do too.
-
-One issue that you may run into, however, is the addition of the `cs-active` class to the page that the user is currently on. As the same navigation element is being rendered on all pages, manually adding the `cs-active` class to one of the navigation items will cause that item to be "activated" between all pages.
-
-To get around this, you will need to manually add some Nunjucks code to each of the navigation items to check the page the user is on and add `cs-active` if that particular page is being viewed. That code would look like this:
+The navigation in `_includes/sections/header.html` is built with manually written nav items. Each navigation link uses a Nunjucks check against `page.url` to conditionally apply the `cs-active` class, highlighting the current page. This looks like:

 All other non-content files are stored in `assets/`, which is set up in `.eleventy.js` to be passed through to `public/`. A brief overview of each of the folders within `assets/`, and any relevant notes, is provided below:
 
-- `css/` - SASS/LESS files from the `less/` or `sass/` directories are built into `css/`. From here, the CSS is processed as an Eleventy template, where we minify the code (production only), and pass it through to `public/`. **Do not** make CSS changes here - instead, use the SASS or LESS asset directory (depending on which kit you're using).
 - `favicons/` - Any favicon files can be stored here. We recommend using [this tool](https://realfavicongenerator.net/) to generate favicons for all devices.
-- `fonts/` - If you have any non-standard fonts you wish to locally host, you can put the files here. You can use [this tool](https://gwfh.mranftl.com/fonts) to download font files to be stored in `fonts/`, as well as generate the code to be put in your `root.scss` or `root.less` file.
-- `images/` - Any images can go here. No processing will occur.

+- `images/` - Any images can go here. If the Sharp Images plugin is enabled, images referenced via `{% getUrl %}` will be resized and optimized at build time.
 - `js/` - Put any JavaScript in this directory. It will be processed, bundled, and minified by esbuild.
-- `sass/` or `less/` - Depending on whether you're using the SASS or LESS version of the kit, you'll find your preprocessor files in one of these directories. Make your changes to styling here, not in `assets/css`
+- `less/` - Your LESS preprocessor files. LESS is compiled to CSS and output directly to `public/assets/css/` by the build event processor, which also handles autoprefixing and minification (production only) via PostCSS. Make your style changes here.
 - `svgs/` - A separate directory for SVGs. This makes it easier to bulk-compress SVGs separate from `images/` if you're using a tool like [compressor.io](https://compressor.io/).

+#### Image Optimization
+
+This kit uses [`@codestitchofficial/eleventy-plugin-sharp-images`](https://github.com/CodeStitchOfficial/eleventy-plugin-sharp-images) to resize and convert images at build time, producing optimized AVIF, WebP, and JPEG variants at multiple breakpoints. The plugin provides a `{% getUrl %}` shortcode used throughout the page templates to generate `<picture>` elements with multiple `<source>` tags.
+
