   8. LANDING HERO — conference landing page hero, reused each year.
   Default: soft light glow background (white center fading to light cool

   behind the content. Centered: logo, large headline (accent words in red),
   then the button row. Dates and city live in the logo image and alt text.
   Each phase: only the buttons change (headline "See you in Kansas City"
   stays all cycle). To change the background year: edit content: "2027".
   Parts:
   .hero-content  centered content wrapper
   .hero-logo     logo on the background (no card)
   .hero-date     large headline; wrap the accent words in <span>
   .cta-buttons   button row, centered; buttons keep their own .btn styles
