5e has these online tools like Homebrewery (https://homebrewery.naturalcrit.com/) and GMBinder (https://www.gmbinder.com/) that let people create facsimiles of the official formatting for their homebrew. It would be cool to have a 3e equivalent.

Clearly, it would be a significant project. I don't code, but I can offer the formatting info to anyone with an urge to take it up.
