You don’t run your JS through babel or minification?

why would I?

for a small project those efficiencies wont make a difference on my $20 godaddy hosting account.

i dont want some tool or process getting in my way. if i have a problem then i will look for a solution.

This, so much.

I do like SPA also, but some of the nicest projects I've worked with could be run locally by launching `python3 -m http.server 8008' on the right folder.

I'm happier when I can do something without a processing step, or the need for a package.json. Need a third-party script? Vendor it, and never have to worry about supply-chain attacks.

For browser compatibility?
