Writing pages in a web site is a mess, polluted by different syntaxes, HTML, CSS, Javascript, jQuery things, MarkDown, ... It's a miracle that Wikipedia exists!

Writing pages in a web site is a mess, polluted by different syntaxes, HTML, CSS, Javascript, jQuery things, MarkDown, ... It's a miracle that Wikipedia exists! Several works have been done to bring some unity, for instance Skribe, Scribble, LAML, SXML, but they generally lead to complex systems devoted to coders and forgetting web designers and, of course, beginners.
The {lambda way} project is built as a thin overlay on top of any modern web browser, and devoted to writing, composing and coding on the web, where the markup, styling and scripting are unified in a single language, {lambda talk}.
Commenting this work, somebody wrote this: « Reminds me of John McCarthy's lament at the W3C's choice of SGML as the basis for HTML: "An environment where the markup, styling and scripting is all s-expression based would be nice." »
The project can be seen here: http://epsilonwiki.free.fr/lambdaway/ http://epsilonwiki.free.fr/lambdaway/ or in https://github.com/amarty66 https://github.com/amarty66.
Do you think that {lambda way} is on the good way?
