Verify the result

• The homepage uses Solitude and static assets return no 404 responses.
• The browser console has no ES module, configuration JSON, or dynamic import errors.
• _config.yml contains theme: solitude and _config.solitude.yml exists.
• Search, comments, music, and other disabled modules are not requested unnecessarily.

After the base site works, configure identity, navigation, the homepage, the sidebar, and posts in that order. Add search and comments after their external services are ready.
