About

Alfaaz (words) is a quiet space for original writing — poems and ghazals in Hindi and English — presented as a simple static website.

This repository holds the site source, writings data, and license terms for reuse.

View locally

No build step is required.

1. Clone the repository.
2. Open index.html in a browser, or serve the folder with any static server.

Example (Python):

python -m http.server 8080

Then open http://localhost:8080.

Serving over HTTP is recommended so data fetch (assets/data/writings.json) and audio work reliably.
