My goal at the moment is to get these two pages updated:
I updated these pages after S's initial edits. I added the technologies being used and the topics we are planning to cover. Is there anything else that I should add?

I'm all for updating the style guide. But what I don't understand is why we have to keep setting up competing style guides in different locations. This does nothing but confuse people.
I don't think they are competing style guides, they are just different for different technologies (the mediawiki.ui LESS files and the MediaWiki theme in OOjs UI). They still have (or at least strive to have) the same design. The reason we setup a new one was due to the limitations of KSS. OOjs UI has JavaScript widgets that can't be documented with KSS. We also wanted to add non-CSS documentation like a primer on typography and iconography but KSS allows for only on Markdown file in the introduction, making it difficult to achieve this.
I agree that it confuses people :( I hope documentation helps! I am happy to clarify anywhere else you might think it'll help.

What's the source for the https://tools.wmflabs.org/styleguide/ landing page so we can make it not-awful if we're going to keep it around for a while longer while mediawiki.ui is still in use?
Its not-awful now.
