In fact, It's not necessary to follow the hype about a technology or a
trend.
But It's not necessary to follow the hype to create a beautiful webpage.
The current page is many 90s style.
The FSF webpage (https://www.fsf.org/) is more beautiful than the current
Hurd webpage, for example. The GNU project's main website (
https://www.gnu.org/) is a good example too.

So, It's possible to make a beautiful and useful webpage, without following
the latest trends and hype.
