Ask HN: Who is the most elegant open-source website project you've ever seen?
I'm trying to deploy some websites, so I thought of this question. It's not about personal aesthetics; there might be some common preferences among everyone.

I think its more useful to define requirements of an "elegant" website.
FOSS is getting attacked a lot by governments these days so if you care about privacy or not doesnt matter, you need opsec or you could end up in prison.
Thats why a good open source website should be made elegant and usable by browsers with JS disabled and also other web features disabled. Website should be simple, don't make it unnecessary advanced using Javascript for something you can do with CSS.

For me it was always Ansible docs.
A nice balance between full reference, guides and examples. Not fancy, but somehow I was always able to find my way around it.
Impressive, considering the insane amount of modules there with such huge range of use cases.
