HTML and CSS alone are really powerful. I decided not to use any JS on my personal site, but you can still have:

+ collapsible sections with `details` and `summary`[0]

+ footnotes, with navigation to/from with anchor tags. You can even apply CSS on the currently selected footnote.[1]

+ Semantic web that is compatible with everything and has sensible defaults so you can focus on what you're actually doing!

+ Tiny deploys and page loads. Single KBs (with brotli compression) for long blog posts. Just `scp` and Nginx keeps serving.

I can't think of anything else I want. And when I think of it, I can probably build it on top.
