## Summary
- On direct page load to `#/home` (or a full refresh), `renderHome()`
runs before the async `/api/config/theme` fetch resolves, so
`window.SITE_CONFIG` is `undefined` and `homeCfg` is `null` — showing SF
defaults instead of the site's customisations.
- When navigating from another page the fetch has already completed,
which is why it works in that case.
- Fix: subscribe to `theme-refresh` (the event fired ~300 ms after the
config is fetched and applied) and re-render; clean up the listener in
`destroy()`.
This matches the existing pattern used by `analytics.js` and `map.js`.
Fixes#1193
## Test plan
- [x] Hard-refresh directly to `#/home` — customised `heroTitle`,
`heroSubtitle`, steps, footer links must render correctly
- [x] Navigate from another page to Home — still renders correctly (no
regression)
- [x] Site with no custom config — defaults render, no JS errors
- [x] Theme customiser changes while on Home page — page re-renders
(theme-refresh re-render still works)
