I was wondering when it comes to Joomla & SEO, is there anything I should do/don't do to improve my project in this regard?

Write relevant content, and use appropriate headings, page titles, and tags. Use appropriate aliases for your menu links and enable the SEF URLS in global configuration.
Keywords and Description can be added but they are not the only thing search engines use.
The above is probably the starting point only with only a few basic concepts.

Yeah, it had already been enabled by default.
What about index.php? For example, there used to be a Head-component in earlier versions of Joomla, but I was told it was no longer used/supported.
In Cassiopeia's index.php for example, I see no:
Code: Select all
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Website title</title>
Is this handled differently in Joomla/Cassiopeia template?

The Cassiopeia index.php calls the necessary classes and functions through templates/cassiopeia/component.php and libraries/src/HTML/HTMLHelper.php. AFAIK, the relevant script is libraries/src/Document/Renderer/Html/HeadRenderer.php.
If you would like to customise the outcome, write a system plugin for the onBeforeCompileHead event.
