This pull request will bring to the website a new Dart backend, updated for Dart 2.7.

The Dart code has been nearly entirely rewritten in order to provide better performance for the front-end while also being compatible with the new redesign, which is a complete overhaul from the old website version.

The style has also been entirely rewritten, still in SCSS, and provides now three themes the user can choose from:

a light theme (default theme)
a dark theme
a black theme (best suited for AMOLED displays)

This works with the new theming Dart code which no longer requires the JS Dart dependency nor the Cookies JS dependency, making load time faster for the user. It now works by storing in the browser’s LocalStorage the user’s selected theme (in case of absence of choice by the user, the light theme is stored by default).

This pull request also contains some commits related to some of my conlangs, especially the Ñyqy language, that were supposed to go to the master branch.

Once I merge this PR, my next goal will be to move out the backend from this repo into its own repo so the backend can be reused for some of my other websites and/or pages that are also exported through org-mode.

What I think I will do then is just one instance of the backend to which all requests for JS and styling will be redirected from the pages that were exported from org-mode.
