Custom landing page for FileMaker WebDirect

Hi everyone, this is my first post in this forum.

I'm a FileMaker developer. One of the features I like most is something called WebDirect, which basically renders your solution into a web page on the fly, in real time. It has its limitations but works really great.

One of the things I want to improve is the login window. There is a way to create a custom landing/login page instead of using the built-in page. I found an example in GitHub but honestly it looks like 1990's NetScape. I want to accomplish the same result with a modern and beautiful web page.

I've been looking for stacks that allow me to add a couple fields (user name and password), format the password field as a password field and have a submit button. All the rest are bells and whistles.

Sitelok looks promising but it seems designed to protect a website and not to create a simple form.

Attached to this post is the example I found on GitHub. Please take a look at it and I'd appreciate if someone could give guidance on how to figure this out using Foundation.

Best regards

Ibrahim
