   Accra Posts — main stylesheet
   Modernist design system, self-hosted. Tokens are the source of truth: never
   hard-code a hex, font name, spacing or radius the tokens already carry.

   Layer order:
     1. Tokens (:root)
     2. Reset + base elements
     3. Base typography
     4. WordPress core / block base (alignments, captions, galleries)
     5. Component layer (buttons, forms, cards, tags, nav, table, hr, media)
     6. Layout scaffold (container, skip link, a11y helpers)
