Comment on The sheer amount of websites that are completely unusable without JavaScript

  If you have static content, then sure, serve up some SSR HTML. But pages with even static content usually have some form of interactivity, like searching (suggestions/auto-complete), etc. 🤷‍♂️

    Search is easier to implement without Javascript than with.

    <form method="GET" action="/search">
    <input name="q">
    <input type=submit>
    </form>

      Does that little snippet include suggestions, like I mentioned? Of course it’s easier with less functionality.

        Back in my day, we’d take that fully-functional form and do progressive enhancement to add that functionality on top with js.
