I was happy to see someone finally referred to the motherfucking websites.

On the other hand, I was disappointed to see the unique one of those I think it is worth to follow the advice [1] was not cited.

For curiosity reasons, I found out about [1] on a well-known website [2] that definitely puts content in front of presentation, even though I like their website's design.

Heh I knew there were many but I couldn't remember them all, and the search terms around these are, shall we say, a bit dangerous.

Of all of them, I think the one you linked is probably the best. It is still interesting to watch the progression.

I know whitespace is "wasted" file size for transport purposes, but god damn that HTML on Better and Best are unreadable without proper indentations.
The source is on GitHub, you're basically looking at "machine code" for the browser. But if you want to verify it's the same code, it isn't obfuscated, so just run a beautifier over it and compare. Best of both worlds.
