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.
