Frontenders: take note! This is the next step logical step in the frontend evolution.
All javascript can now be minified to zero bytes [0]. This can result in a significant improvement in asset load times as well as render times.
Furthermore, by following the process backwards developers can save time in the build process.
I'm also happy to announce that this new technology is supported by all major browsers that anyone will ever want to use: Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Edge, lynx etc.
(PS: there are also significant improvements waiting in accessibility and SEO.)
Sincerly,

- allover 9y ago> Frontenders: take note! Frontend communities have been building their docs as static sites forever. You aren't telling 'frontenders' anything they don't know here.
- reitanqild 9y agoWho should we blame in your opinion?
- BoorishBears 9y agoNo one, it's not productive
- reitanqild 9y agoSo what should we do to end this massive abuse of js in places where it isn't needed?
- ajbetteridge 9y agoDon't blame, educate.
- IncRnd 9y agoThat's what he was doing.
- allover 9y agoNo, he was making generalisations, in a patronising manner.
- reitanqild 9y agoOk, then I failed somewhat. Because I was just trying to educate in a somewhat lighthearted manner. So I ask again: how do we stop the current JS abuse? BTW: I've been my tems dedicated frontender for the last few weeks ;-)
