Hero section now min-height: 100vh — fills the entire viewport, content
vertically centered via flex-column + justify-content: center. Scrolling
reveals the rest of the page below (3-pillars cards, industries, etc.).
Replaces the previous fixed-padding approach (9rem top, 8rem bottom) which
left visible space below the hero on tall monitors and forced the hero
shorter on mobile.
Padding kept minimal (2rem top/bottom) for breathing room when content
gets close to the viewport edges on very short displays.

Replaces the home page's plain-navy hero with a full-bleed video-background
section + dark navy overlay (60%) for text readability. The video URL is
read from the WP option `av_home_hero_video_url`. If empty, the hero
gracefully falls back to a solid navy background — same layout, same text,
just no video.
Settings (Bricks-native background.videoUrl pattern from container.php
get_background_video_html) :
- videoUrl : the configured option value
- videoScale : 'cover'
- videoAspectRatio : '16/9'
- overlay : rgba(11,31,58,0.6) navy 60%
- color fallback while video loads
Typography :
- H1 : 3.5rem white, weight 800, tight letter-spacing, responsive
breakpoints down to 1.875rem on mobile
- Lead : muted-white rgba 0.85
- CTAs : gold primary + outline-on-dark secondary
Helper mu-plugin av-set-home-video.php :
/?av_set_home_video=https://...mp4 sets the URL
/?av_set_home_video=clear empties (back to navy)
Workflow :
1. Upload MP4 to Media Library, copy URL
2. /?av_set_home_video=<URL>
3. /?av_generate_home=1
4. Visit / — cinematic hero with looping muted autoplay video bg

Brings the site to its full programmatic page count : 24 EN + 24 FR pages
(48 total), all wired into the WPML CTE workflow established in the previous
commit. Each phase reuses tools/_av-bricks-shared.php builders, adds its own
filter('av_fr_translation_dict') to extend the FR dictionary, and ships a
seed-FR mu-plugin for the initial WPML trid linking.
## Phase 8 — Technology (tools/av-generate-technology.php + seed)
Hub /technology/ + 6 pillar pages (vr-hardware, software-ai, weapons-tracking,
scenarios, instructor-cockpit, after-action-review). Hub uses a 6-card grid
(3+3 layout — added card_count=6 case in av_build_cards_section).
EN : 87-93. FR : 94-100.
## Phase 9 — Editorial (tools/av-generate-editorial.php + seed)
5 top-level pages : /why-asterion/, /about/, /customers/, /trust/, /partners/.
Required adding empty-parent-path support to av_upsert_detail_page() so pages
can be created at the site root (no hub). EN : 107-111. FR : 112-116.
## Phase 10 — Forms (tools/av-generate-forms.php + seed)
4 conversion pages : /request-demo/, /request-te-kit/, /request-quote/,
/contact/. Custom page builder (not the shared detail-page pattern) :
hero + 2-column section (Bricks `form` element on left, promise list on
right) + optional shortcuts row (Contact), eligibility list (T&E Kit), FAQ
accordion (Demo). Form actions=email, emailTo=hello@asterionvr.com.
Field labels, select options, FAQ Q&A all in the FR dict.
EN : 122-125. FR : 126-129.
## Phase 11 — Home page (tools/av-generate-home.php + seed)
Custom-written single page (no data file). Sections : hero + 3-pillar cards
(Operational reality / Modular / Sovereign) + 4 Industries cards + 4
Solutions cards + 4-stat numbers band + Why-Asterion teaser CTA + Customers
teaser CTA + custom navy closer. Set as WP static front via
update_option(show_on_front=page, page_on_front=ID).
EN : 134. FR : 135.
## tools/_av-bricks-shared.php
- av_upsert_detail_page() now accepts empty `$parent_path` → top-level page
- av_build_cards_section() handles card_count=6 → 3-per-row layout
