[Warning: Not Safe For Prod] Pug and Stylus for html / css preprocessors, especially if you're new to coding. I used to teach a lot of web dev classes to non web devs (mainly designers looking to upskill). One of the worst parts of html/css (or code in general), particularly when you're experimenting, is the strictness. Pug and Stylus are great preprocessors for experimenting and rapid iteration, particularly because they don't care. Pug doesn't care if you change between its syntax and html. Stylus doesn't care if you missed a ;, or a : in your style declaration. They are forgiving languages, essentially the antithesis of something like Typescript. Absolutely excellent when you're trying to wrap your brain around something. I highly recommend them.
