Lots of javascript for a "css-only" tool. Looks like just the rendering is css-only.

  Yep. Can confirm this does not work with JS disabled. I'm disappointed by the misleading title.

    is it a Generator for CSS-Only Terrain? or a CSS-Only Generator which creates Terrain? We need PEMDAS for English.

      Let's use sexpr? actual meaning -> ((CSS-Only Terrain) Generator) incorrect interpretation -> (CSS-Only (Terrain Generator))
      • shermantanktop 11mo ago
        maybe RPN? actual meaning -> CSS-Only Terrain + Generator + incorrect interpretation -> CSS-Only + Terrain Generator + Really we may need BNF here

  Not to mention of all of those pesky HTML tags and images, clearly not CSS-only, what a fraud.
  • cmiller1 11mo ago
    "CSS-only" colloquially tends to mean HTML and CSS without Javascript, sometimes without images.

      The tone of the parent comment suggests they were writing in jest and are aware that "CSS-only" includes HTML.

  I guess it'd be more accurate to call it a "Generator for CSS-Only Terrain", as the generator itself is not CSS-only.
  • tantalor 11mo ago
    It's a "(CSS-only Terrain) Generator", not a "CSS-only (Terrain Generator)"

  You can open up your terrain in codepen with nothing but CSS/HTML, and it renders fine. It's just not interactive / draggable anymore. So the JS is only being used, essentially, as a nice UI for configuring your terrain and the camera angle from which it's viewed. This is still an incredible feat.
