Embedding styles into HTML itself might be not the best idea for large website (hard to maintain), but will indeed save something on round trip time. Anyway, Svelte5 is able to prerender pages to static HTML as well
JavaScript browser engines are walking (more like running) security vulnerabilities the code bases are absurd, JavaScript libraries are also gigantic so loading the front page to the website takes more space then a small size computer program (lets not even get started on electron). Making a website used to be an art for technically skilled people to engage in and have fun (I am ignoring the people who made bad websites) now it is just corpo robo brr... everything looks the same and if your a technical business trying to sell a technical service while not being able or willing to spend resources on the first thing people see when they go to your website then you are not worth my money. "oo oo oo my network latency is 0.1ms i have peered all these upstream and optimized my routing" meanwhile takes five seconds to load your JavaScript page
Yes URDN is a good host although they seem to have some issues currently, a bloated website is not one of them :-)
Very glad to hear your putting in effort unlike others around here please send me a message when it is done, do you support contact through XMPP with OMEMO or OTR? or PGP encrypted emails?
hi, if you take servers from us, then you get a clean OS when you buy. Apart from the system, nothing will be installed there additionally and you install everything yourself.
Right but this thread is less about the server and more about the process of purchasing it and interacting with the management panel.
Well, you can interact with our control panel from a browser, or you can independently install what is required for remote access to the server and use this tool to work.
How to say you didn't read the topic or have any idea what this is about without saying you have no idea what this is about.
Let me give you an example, there is a forum made with js, on mobile it loads in 30 seconds, with js off 1-2 seconds. not to mention phone BURNZ. typing takes 2-3s for each character.
Older smartphones or cpu gets killed
I remember some older vps hosts who just provide shell access without any panel. But can't remember which one it was.
this is literally so fucking funny thank you for commenting this
That's not because of JavaScript, but because of the site itself. Unfortunately its such incompetence that got onto JS reputation.
Hi,
our control panel use a bit of javascript.
But
we dont do.
So maybe its still fitting for you.
You can test things out if it works for you by getting a free test server:

For component design frameworks, embedding styles is not that big deal.
Saved RTT doesn't sound like worth optimization, single CSS file including all necessary and no irrelevant styles would be way better IMO.
What has the site has to do with it?
Js is locally executed right? You wanted to say that it calls other sites and it adds more latency or what? Then why everything loads faster with it off?
pretty unique request.
I remember years ago while working on my first custom e-commerce system there was a concept known as “progressive enhancement” for the customer facing frontend meaning any JavaScript should be built on top of a working website to enhance the user experience but it is not necessary for critical functionality. Progressive enhancement allows markup up to be at the foundation, markup is then presented using CSS, and lastly JavaScript can be added for additional user enhancements. This structure allows search engine robots, people with disabilities and people with JavaScript turned off to still be able to use the website.
Today’s concept is “graceful degradation” which essentially is just:
people inventing javascript.
also people try to deny it in using.

I learned something cool about @Not_Oles and https://metalvps.com/ today. Very cool
Thank you LowEndTalk
Really, it depends on how it is made. But generally today JavaScript is used everything (also inefficiently and for things that it shouldn't), so the performance hit makes sense.
The only thing that's not easy to implement in a server panel without JS is the interactive console, which is required if you want to tweak BIOS/UEFI settings.
No its not required, this is why IPMI and other OOBM exists.
IPMI cannot deal with UEFI binaries with GUI/TUI at all. Other OOBM solutions like iLO, iDRAC etc. all require JS.
