Looks really good. I love dark mode!

Some quick comments:
 - Remove all commas as a separator. A space works great. 
 - Sort the variants alphabetically and also ports that depend on the currently 
selected port. 
 - Clicking on a variant does not really make sense to me. It seems to go back 
to the search page. The description of the variant should at least appear when 
you hover over a variant. Maybe they should not even be clickable links?
 - Python stub ports don’t really make sense. Search for, say, py-numpy. That’s 
a stub port. It should probably state that you would never install it - so 
don’t display “sudo port install py-numpy” for it because users should never 
actually do that in this case. But instead you want to pick py36-numpy, 
py37-numpy, etc. Show all of the real ports as clickable links. Currently it 
does not even allow you pick any of them.
 - When clicking on the Trac tickets tab, I find it jarring that a window pops 
up that you have to click out of. Just make it a tab that displays the 
selectable tickets (or no tickets). I shouldn’t have to click “Close” to get 
out  of this special mode. 


Cheers!
