Several years ago I started using KomPozer (web page developer) and I was very impressed with how well it performed and what I could quickly develop.
But now when I view the page source -- this forum in particular -- it seems much more complicated.
Is this a result of pages being generated from server-side software or is there some development software available? Cheap, I hope.

Developing site source
I often take a long windy road to my destination. Upon arrival, I wonder how I missed the shortcut.

Re: Developing site source
In general, forum pages aren't a good example of 'proper' web page authoring. As you've seen, it's pretty much tag soup.
I doubt they used anything complicated to make those. It's a mishmash of template snippets, likely coded by hand.

Re: Developing site source
Thank you, BenoitRen. Your words are refreshing. They seem to use a lot of JavaScript too. Never did much of that other than copy a fragment from the web and modify to fit my needs.
Thank you.

+1 for Geany. I've been using it for years and found it to be very effective. Two useful reference sites are:
1) MDN Web Docs
2) Rosetta Code: JavaScript
