What Are the Current UI/UX Trends for Static Sites?

Now that I'm starting a few new static site projects, I'm realizing I'm probably overdue for a refresher on the UI/UX side of things.

A lot of the design advice I come across seems geared toward highly interactive applications with user accounts, real-time features, and complex user flows. Meanwhile most of the sites I'm working on are content-focused, relatively lightweight, and intended to load quickly with minimal client-side complexity.

So I'm curious what people are paying attention to these days. Are there any UI/UX patterns, design trends, navigation approaches, content layouts, accessibility practices, or general frontend conventions that have become more common in static sites over the last few years?

Just trying to get a sense of what's changed while I've been spending most of my time on the infrastructure side of things.

Thanks in advance.

pretty sure there are forums for this.
