The currently generated output is based on bootstrap 3

https://github.com/Fortran-FOSS-Programmers/ford/blob/29063388bcee4e1b650071e1025a8fb16ee724f2/ford/css/bootstrap.css#L2

Updating to bootstrap 4 or 5 would give all generated docs access to somewhat more modern look of the newer bootstrap versions.

Good idea! Do you know if the more recent versions are backwards compatible? Some people might have custom site CSS, and I would be a little wary of breaking that -- or rather, I don't mind breaking that, but only in a new major/minor version (depending on level of breaking-ness).

Going one step further, perhaps switching to https://semantic-ui.com might be even better. It has a variety of themes builtin, including bootstrap.

Semantic empowers designers and developers by creating a shared vocabulary for UI.
