It still can be. Do it. Go make your website in M$ Frontpage, for all I care

Shameless plug: My music homepage follows the HTML 2.0 spec and is written by hand

Just did that for a test frontend for a module I needed to build (not my primary job so don't know anything about UI but running in browsers was a requirement), so basic HTML with the bare minimum of JS and all DOM. Colleagues were very surprized. And yes, vim is still the goto editor and will be for a long time now all "IDE" are pushing "AI" slop everywhere.

For me it was making a petpage for my neopets using https://lissaexplains.com/

It's still up in all its glory.

This is great! The name reference also made me smile.
