I love that people are thinking about how to make chunks of the web reusable in standalone contexts, but I really truly deeply with that all the solutions like htmx and web components weren't so hopelessly intrinsically tied to JavaScript. I cut my teeth on the ideals of the semantic web and I strongly believe that a web page should be fundamentally usable with JavaScript disabled. For highly interactive applications I concede this as a lost cause, but it breaks my heart to think that personal websites and blogs, which are essentially plain hypertext, are being built on technologies that simply can't work without scripting.

I really need to throw together Something for the sake of having a link to a website to hand out, but I have every intention of writing a whole ass site from scratch with just HTML and CSS and SVG, because first of all I don't want any JavaScript, but more importantly because I want to be free to do whatever I need to make CSS Crimes in the future

I don’t know if you’ve seen what enhancement web components look like? I finally saw someone explaining how web components work that made me understand that they’re not just fundamentally javascript-only junk, it’s just people choosing to use them that way.

yeah that's a lot better, but it sacrifices all the ability to define a component that can be shared and reused across sites. it wouldn't even make sense to do that for a Cohost post component, for example, because there's nothing to enhance

Yeah, I really feel that. It's something I'm glad I'm able to do with a local static blog that's totally under my control at least. But that's something that requires a lot more technical control and pretty much precludes, say. Blogging from my phone.

(I even made CSS optional so my blog works on, like. Netscape 4, lol)

My personal website does not contain any Javascript. At all. HTML and two stylesheets, one of which is just all of FontAwesome because while I'm not using it much, I'm also not inclined to think about it.

It's very funny when pageloads are so fast on a stylesheet so well defined without FOUC that, to an untrained eye, you would assume it is a SPA.

i fondly remember in the late aughts playing with all the fancy new CSS3 stuff and showing off how much (gracefully-degrading!) interactivity you could achieve without any JS at all. i was so hopeful for a world where people who wanted animating menus and so on would be able to use all the stuff then being added to the standards rather than copying boatloads of JS from dynamicdrive
