## How to use it

Use Raycast as a starting point, not a template. Learn from what makes it work (its type scale, spacing, density, colour temperature and how much moves), mix in other references and your own brand and ideas, and build something recognisably yours with your own name, copy and images. Do not copy its text, logo, images or exact layout; the site belongs to its owners.
