If you really want to see great examples of CSS styling, the "CSS Zen Garden"
(https://www.csszengarden.com) is a great site where every example is the exact same HTML
with different CSS.
I learned a ton from those designs back when it was new.
A few particularly interesting (to me) examples:
Comics style: https://csszengarden.com/099/
Horizontal layout: https://csszengarden.com/058/
Post Office Style: https://csszengarden.com/052/

Fond memories. If it's just HTML, and no complicated server side
processing ..... What do you need done, that the billion HTML website
builder sites (eg: Wix etc, etc) can't do?
* Web site builders can't build w3c compliant HTML, so it's likely
they'll render very differently on different browsers.
* If you switch builders, its very hard to bring your old work with
you. As your current builder gets updated, changes to your website
get harder and harder.
* If your builder uses "everything plus kitchen sink" CSS files or
stores static content in databases, it's going to be slow, even with
intercontinental caching (CDN -- Content Delivery Network).
* It's amazing how easy HTML and CSS are if approached the right way.
See https://troubleshooters.com/web/ for details. To do most websites
you need only a tiny subset of what's contained there.
