FTD: https://ftd.dev/language/. A DSL for creating "programmable prose". Markdown with data declaration, event handling and soon arbitrary computation.

There are many rendering issues on their landing pages.

Things like unreadable elements with near 0 contrast between font and background and a dark mode with pieces of widgets with a white background does not fill me with confidence for a UI focused technology.

Yeah this has to be some sort of joke, I can't even read what 80% of the sidebar on mobile, and it crashes my phone every other page.

Hey, can you tell me what phone you are using and what exactly do you mean by "crashes my phone"?

Thanks for the design feedback. The theme is new. The language itself is new. The static generator is new. Sidebar issue on mobile, and contrast issue we are aware of and are working on. Markdown styling is not a trivial issue to fix as we do not allow authors or theme builders to access CSS directly, [1] is the design we have come up with.

If anyone from FTD is here, the site has some text issues on dark mode:

It looks fine on light mode:
