What a good website editor for Synchronet?
I would like to edit the website side of it.

You can create your own website using whatever web authoring tools you
prefer; there is no Synchronet-specific recommendation to be made.

The existing web UIs use CSS, HTML, and JavaScript on the client and
server sides to produce what you see in the browser. To alter them,
you'll need some knowledge and a decent code editor. I use Visual
Studio Code, but take your pick; there's a whole world of editors out
there.

The newer (but still old) webv4 system is meant to be customized via
CSS and through config settings in modopts.ini. This is all detailed
on the Synchronet wiki. If you want to customize it further, you'll
need to alter its scripts, and you have my apologies because some of
them are pretty gnarly.

The phrasing of your question makes it sound like you want a graphical
WYSIWYG application like ... I dunno, Dreamweaver? You can use such a
thing if you want, but you'd be looking at creating at least your own
front-end from scratch. It will not work with the existing client-side
web stuff.
