Perhaps I'm overthinking things and HTML does this naturally, but is there something for rendering that is what Swagger/OpenAPI is to APIs? Some way of specifying HTML that can be both rendered (and read back for inputs) by multiple implementations.

In theory, that's what template languages like jinja, liquid and twig are for.

But as you can see, there's n+1 standards for it, and in practice none of them has a Javascript implementation good enough for productive use. So it's more a "what if?" scenario, had Angular/React/Vue not taken off.
