maybe dumb question but why is this a problem? this basically means they get inlined into initial HTML (ok maybe a bit silly) and then driven from DOM for new renders. “use client” does NOT mean “exclude me from HTML”

Oops, i meant to say i tested in 2022 *on my Steam Deck.* Throwing weird devices at a website and looking for breaks is a sure way to make sure what you’re building will help others.

It's always sad to see work like that get lost or scrapped when new teams take over. Accessibility is often one of the first things to go.

In the old days I'd use the Lynx browser to see how badly the HTML structure's semantic foundation would hold up in a *text-only* browser. You can also disable CSS and JS to see if the site still works as plain HTML. This is good QC as it reveals all sorts of hidden things one can improve as well.

Agree. Most marketing sites need HTML-first plus a form, not a full client framework. Astro is usually the clean fit for that. I keep a few Astro themes built that way here: noel.marketing/astro-themes/

You don't need a content management system if you're not going to manage your content. That's half the budget back right there.
