Yeah, S-expressions are way more pleasant to write.
With the benefit of a lot of hindsight, S-expressions seem like a superior choice for writing web applications (instead of HTML + JavaScript + some JS framework that writes HTML again (regardless of DOM vs Virtual DOM)).
Even though I prefer dialects like Fennel for programming rather than Common Lisp (I'd probably be fine with Clojure and Janet as well, but I haven't tried them), I wouldn't mind any dialect if that means I could use S-expressions instead of HTML+JS, assuming the amount of effort put into sandboxing that approach were as much as the effort that has been put into the current approach.
