Xojo Web is built upon Bootstrap. Using your own custom HTML design is very difficult and a lot of work.

sounds like you will use xojo as back-end to handle data and store it into db.
you could use java script fetch command in your current page to send post request to a xojo back-end.

If you don’t mind getting low-level, you can use HandleURL to do whatever you want. I have HTML templates that HandleURL customizes for output, manages state and session cookies, and does database work as well.

There are probably better frameworks to do that in, but in my case it allows me to reuse a lot of complex classes that I developed for Desktop, so it can be worth it.
