Style is the afterthought. The focus should be on cohesiveness. We can
make small tweaks later to make the design better.

It's growing on me... somewhat. The big problem right now is that the
old wiki's styles are messing with the way things look. It causes
fatigue because the flow is off.

HTML semantics is actually why I chose H2 - you're technically only
supposed to have one H1 on the whole page. :\ I hope it reads okay in a
screen reader. Part of the motivation behind the Django app is to be
able to address situations where we need the documentation in a
different format. Atlassian publishes their CSS documentation here (it's
how I made the datatype badges): https://docs.atlassian.com/aui/5.8.29/

They have a dedicated CSS class for adding context for screen readers!

Yes - I'm trying to create minimal, correct HTML.
