As you can see from the current state of this site, I'm not exactly
exactly the most skilled web designer. But I struggled through the
basics enough to get an idiot's sense of front-end web design, so that
perspective might be useful if you have no clue where to start with this
like I did.

The building blocks are very simple, *but there's a lot of blocks*. The
HTML5 specification, which most browsers are built around, defines ...
and the CSS ... I've never gotten deep into the weeds like professional
designers do--and to be honest, I don't really want to. But I *do* like
understanding how things work. And getting a unique custom HTML site is
something anyone with a text editor and a web browser can get done in a
weekend.

The specifications linked above are followed religiously by major
web browsers like Chromium, Firefox, and Safari so that each symbol
defined in the standard puts graphics, animations
