- bosdev 11y agoYou mean without JavaScript and CSS? The reason browser versions matter is because there has been a massive amount of innovation in JS and CSS in the last decade. That innovation has allowed websites to move closer and closer to the capabilities of desktop applications, which is a win for ease-of-installation, security and for the web as a platform.
- J_Darnley 11y agoYes, basically. You don't need javascript for presentation. You don't need overloaded eye candy driven by oodles of css. An HTML document is like http://motherfuckingwebsite.com/ http://motherfuckingwebsite.com/ or http://bettermotherfuckingwebsite.com/ http://bettermotherfuckingwebsite.com/ or this website Hacker News.
