Greetings,
I place great importance on no-js environments. Code that considers this aspect tends to result in a cleaner web experience.
While my website does utilize JavaScript due to being built with Svelte, it has been meticulously designed to ensure no discrepancies arise when tested in a no-js environment.
Currently, it seems that joining this club is solely contingent upon a website's complete absence of JavaScript. I'm curious if there's any avenue for individuals like myself, whose websites function seamlessly without JavaScript despite its presence, to also become members.
Would it be necessary to create a separate, JavaScript-free version of my website for evaluation purposes? (Although it would undoubtedly function without any issues.)
My website can be found at https://blog.xiyo.dev. Its dynamic features are guaranteed to work flawlessly on the latest Chrome browser.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Hello, yes, as of right now, we only accept sites with 0% JavaScript. You'll see some sites having Scripts and still being on here, but thats usually because they are outdated and I do not have the time to occasionally go through and check all sites. Creating a JavaScript-free site - as of now - would indeed be necessary. Once I find enough time to dedicate myself to the project again, I will probably go ahead and - as one of many planned changes - also loosen the rules a bit which then could allow sites which, while containing JavaScript for some particular reasons, still function very well as in 100% without JavaScript enabled. Thanks for your patience and interest.
I have a further question. My own website is, to some extent, JS-free (for example, the home page and my CV contain zero JS. However, the actual content pages (here's one) contain a small amount of JS, which is purely optional as it's to power a comments system. (This enables no-reload live preview and up/downvoting over something POST-based, and I have specifically chosen it for being lightweight and self-hostable.)
The site can be enjoyed without JS, only some minor optional functionality requires it. I think it respects the spirit of the No-JS club, if not the letter. What's your opinion on it?
Generally, the spirit is pretty much "100%" without JavaScript, though the process of painstakingly checking every site is quite time-consuming and right now I don't do it. I'd honestly make an exception as I kind of would want to revisit both the process itself as well as the rules. (also, probably a better way would be to open a seperate ticket, but no worries :)). I doubt OP is answering anymore.
