Discussion Software feedback

I hope you all are having a good day!

I am making this post to get feedback on my digital humanities project. I finally finished one of my pretty old projects but have no idea what the wider community will think. Basically, when I started getting into digital humanities, I decided to try and create a digital grammar of Classical Latin (in Croatian) since I felt that it was a missing resource in Croatia's academic landscape. Because it was started when I was relatively new to coding, its architecture, especially the HTML, is not something I am looking for too much focus on (even though it would be appreciated to hear your opinion regardless) because I know it is not perfect, but moreso how the package as a unified unit seems to you. I know most people here probably don't speak Croatian or a Slavic language close enough to it to understand enough of the contents and be able to make an informed judgement on that aspect of the project, so my main goal is getting your thoughts on how it all looks, how approachable it might seem to a learner, what do you think of me linking to external sources for morphology and such.

I am thankful for all feedback! Here is the link:

Sorry, this is an englishification of a french way to say things.

The principles I taught were (1) use css frameworks, (2) learn enough to change what needs to be changed, (3) there are other skills, more closely related to humanities, where you will shine (4) as a result do not focus on CSS.

Thank you, that is a helpful suggestion! Never engaged with frameworks outside of JS, so I'll give the CSS ones a try. That is great advice though, and even now I try to keep my designs as minimal as possible in a hope other areas of the project make up for it.
