Totally agree. It doesn't have to be a binary choice between 0 styles and JS and the full blown site. You can accomplish lots with a few hundred lines of CSS without really affecting load time noticeably.
- paulddraper 9y agoYou have to work very hard to bloat a non-JS, non-web-font page. And all-inclusive build of CSS-only bootstrap (arguably the most fully featured CSS library there is) is <20kb compressed. That's the size of a several second animated GIF.
- ComputerGuru 9y agoWhat animated GIFs are you talking about that are not several MB for a 5 second clip? It's 2017 and the only time my 2 gbps internet connection makes me think my browser has gotten stuck is when it's a gif (and not a recent mp4-masquerading-as-a-gif, I mean those uncompressed, "lets repeat all the content in the next frame even though nothing has changed" honest-to-god GIFs).
