I use vanilla JS, though very little of it since I don’t know it well. I just use it for HTML manipulation (such as document.innerHTML).

why would you ever do that :cry:

Huh? I use that to make navigation. That way, I code the navbar once and inject it with JS into every page. It’s much better than copying and pasting the code for every page and then having to do that again for every edit. Here’s an example of a site I made with that. Also the upcoming Bot Archives use the same feature.

That’s what server-side templates are for. If you do it server-side, your site works correctly on any browser (even ones without JS support), and you don’t have to worry about false bug reports from people who see you using innerHTML.

I’ll do that on the Bot Archives since they’re Flask. CoderElijah.repl.co is NodeJS and currently undergoing no maintenance so it will stay the same.

I don’t like using libraries for frontend. Vanilla is also my favorite ice-cream flavor :slight_smile:

Next.js is my favorite because it handles routing and many other things for me.

I use Javascript and JQuery. They both are easy to understand, and Javascript is my favorite programming language :smile:

I bet 0 people like javascript as much as I do lol.

This sounds like you should try Susha, which is supposed to be a more modern alternative for jQuery,

I haven’t gotten any opinions from anybody fond of using jQuery, so if you do try it, tell me what it’s missing!

Pretty sure that isn’t even valid…:joy: (it just makes a variable pretty much)

That isn’t valid Javascript, it’s document.body.innerHTML.

Or even document.documentElement.innerHTML to select the <html> tag would work.

Worked for me. :man_shrugging: Used it on my website (which is down now).

Odd, maybe it’s a framework thing. With a simple HTML site, document.innerHTML just serves as a variable (like if you did window.innerHTML.
