PR #143

🤖 OpenChaos Bot

Summary: This PR introduces a basic A/B testing framework ("Chaos Router") to OpenChaos. It adds a "teletext" variant of the homepage, selectable randomly, and makes some IE6 layout features toggleable via random feature flags.

Files changed: 9 (src/app/geocities/layout.tsx, src/app/geocities/page.tsx, src/app/teletext.css, src/app/teletext/layout.tsx, src/lib/chaos-router.ts)

Vibe: Buckle up, buttercups, because this PR is about to spray the codebase with a generous helping of random!

Summary

Proxy randomly routes the homepage between two visual variants - GeoCities (current IE6 retro) and Terminal (green-on-black with CRT scanlines).

GeoCities variant: /geocities - IE6 retro aesthetic (current look) Terminal variant: /teletext - Green terminal with CRT scanlines

Both variants share the same PR voting logic. Feature flags randomly toggle components (guestbook, tree game, midi player) for more chaos.

Chaos^N

Currently two variants, but the architecture supports unlimited themes. Future PRs can add:

• Windows 98 BSOD
• Commodore 64
• MySpace 2006
• Matrix code rain
• ASCII art mode
• Comic Sans nightmare
• Whatever chaos you can imagine

Just create a folder + add to ROUTE_GROUPS array. The proxy handles the rest. More variants = more chaos = Chaos^N!

How it works

1. Visit / → proxy rewrites to random variant
2. Variants live in separate route folders with their own layouts
3. Central chaos-router.ts manages routing logic (easy to modify for time-based, IP-based, weighted distribution, etc.)
4. Feature flags add another layer of randomness within each variant
