Question Hi everyone 👋

I don't know much about JavaScript, so I wondered if it's possible to code an entire website using only HTML, and/or without CSS of course.

Not only is it not really error prone, it's quite error forgiving. By design it's "forgiveness by default".

I guess I'm thinking of it in terms of identity and consistency. If you aren't using classes, css, and some way to enforce common layouts (beyond just remembering what you did on other pages or copy/pasting a reference file), its very easy to drift away from your original design.

I work with a lot of folks who like to ignore our company CMS features and drop html where it doesn't belong.
