The no-JS club

The Internet as we find it today is unfortunately a completely bloated disaster including lush JavaScript libraries.

Although modern, interactive websites with great usability can be created without JavaScript. So why do so many websites use it as an essential component - convenience, laziness, ignorance?!

In our opinion, website creation is made way too easy these days. Anyone can create a website in no time and without basic knowledge. clickety click, click and something like a WordPress blog is up and running. Clickety clack, clack and a bunch of plug-ins are integrated. Also in the game the friendly neighbor named JavaScript ;-)

It doesn’t take many years of study to create a respectable website without this friendly neighbor, if for example one of the many Static Site Generators is used. They use Markdown as their markup language which is quick an easy to learn and also can be use with many every day tools like instantmessenger, forums, wikis, developer platforms such as Stack Overflow, sourcehut, GitHub, or GitLab.

So what are you waiting for? Go free your website and join the no-JS club which is a collection of websites that avoid the use of JavaScript and was inspired by projects like 250KB.club, 512KB.club, 1MB.club and the former noJS.club. If you want to join us please have a look at the FAQ to learn how.


The no-JS Club was created by Frank Homburg and is the successor of Karan Goel's now archived project, The noJS Club.
