Creating fancy theorems
Would be great to merge this format with the Tufte book style using margins for additional information and integrating with programming, e.g., Julia and/or python.

Books.jl: Create Books with Julia
If you can pre-build the index, Lunr seems to work well, but it doesn't support Chinese. R/bookdown switched for these reasons recently to fuse.js.
There is discussion of some of the other options and their tradeoffs here:

Bookdown vs. Jupyter-book. Any advantages of using one over the other?
I'm familiar with R Bookdown and I know it produces some excellent results as far as HTML books go, with plenty of templates already available for those who don't know or don't like CSS/JS.

Introducing: an Eleventy starter project for WCAG reports
Awesome idea. I do something similar using GitHub issues to capture each issue, tag with relevant WCAG criteria, then export markdown for each issue via a python script that links cross references from GitHub issues, creates links for all WCAG criteria referenced and then complies into all into HTML (and PDF if needed) using https://bookdown.org

Good projects/books for learning R?
You can try the R Bookdown site (https://bookdown.org/)! There's access to a lot of free R material there and is one of the main places where I learned R.
