Good article content, but wow the article looks great! Really incredible!

If by any chance someone knows the tools that were used to make the big-font subtitles (or the whole page?), enlightenment would be highly appreciated!

FIGlet http://www.figlet.org/ is a nice command-line tool for doing stuff like this. Can preview its fonts online here: https://patorjk.com/software/taag/
Also - the images look strongly reminiscent of `cowsay`.
Thank you!
Looks is in the eye of the beholder, but notice, that in HTML, this is just one big paragraph - if any tool did the whole page, it wasn't particularly interested in semantic HTML.
