![Cover image for 😲 ZERO CSS and just a single image to build a fully interactive SPA???!!?? 😱 Abusing the internet once more!

I am back at it again, abusing the internet and this one should really blow you away.
This time I really do think I have outdone myself.
I pres...

Yeah but if you inspect your page there are hundreds of html elements inserted via JS, inspect this page there is still only one element! 😋
Don't get my wrong, Gooie is cool but you did things properly and that is just cheating! 🤣
haha! I know, just for fun. I think you learn alot by experimenting with unconventional (incorrect) ways to code. Great read!
I am having fun exploring gooie! Fun project!
@cklek Did you delete your original comment?
Whoops I hoped it would delete the whole thread. I didn't want to divert attention from your cool project by plugging my own! You can keep exploring gooie via the link in my bio ☺️
It was fine, thanks for the consideration but I had no issue with it! ❤️
OMG!!.... I was laughing so hard...this is so awesome.
Instead of reading the whole thread I directly jumped to the demo. The first thing I did was inspect the element and then I was like okay...image... That means you must have used the clipping property (or slicing) well when I saw the whole JS I was like omg...this is mind-blowing.
RIP accessibility. Please do not give such ideas to developers :p
Accessa-what-now? It is the down side of all these silly experiments, there is no way to make them enjoyable for everyone.
I have bookmarked your accessibility interview questions for when I have chance to have a look at them and do my normal long comment 😁
haha...indeed...fun-friday-project.
Yeah, I am waiting for your comment and then I will share it in my network.
It might be tomorrow just so you know, don't hang on for me got a busy evening on!
Such a dangerous develpoer idea, 🔥burn it with fire 😂
You don’t think fire is a little bit weak against such a threat? We have nukes, if they aren’t for this what are they for? 😄
I know I should stop - but breaking the internet is just too much fun! 🤣🤣
Let me know if you are enjoying the series (or if this is the first time you have seen an article in this series go check out the others!)!
Oh and if anyone knows a way I can make the keyboard pop up on a mobile without focusing an input (as that would then be two DOM elements 😋) I would love to hear it so I can make it work on a mobile too!
So I can simply DDOS you by moving my mouse cursor 😜
Haha, No that’s why it’s laggy it only requests an image every 250ms.
You could probably trigger DDOS protection by hitting that end point hard with a custom script but you would probably need several computers at once as the server is pretty monstrous and the DDOS settings are quite forgiving (I turned them right down when I did that rick roll video with ASCII text as I locked myself out when I was testing that 🤣🤣)
Oh and I just realised I didn’t put a warning on the article that there was no CSS again, are you OK? 😜
I got used now, I take a deep breath of my CSS work before entering. 😝
🤣🤣 I do the same with your articles, I always have to remind myself that using two
<div>s is sometimes OK! 😋DEVusedToBeGoodNowItSucks - 21:45 21/05/2021
Uses DEV
I missed that comment, it is so eloquently written it is obvious that they are functioning at a higher state than us mere mortals 😜🤣🤣
The fact they had to comment that this article, part of a series on stupid experiments on the web, was a waste of time just says it all 🤣
I see we have found the only person who follows instructions 😜😂.
I hope you enjoyed the silliness!
Sweet! I actually thought about this once as well, as a way for supporting really old browsers 😄 It’s not more than fair that you get a slow experience when using an old browser like IE
You see you hit a nerve there as I advocate for supporting IE due to the number of people who use a screen reader who still rely on it. But at the same time I wish I could kill IE with 🔥! 😜🤣
This is illegal
Technically you are correct as it doesn’t pass WCAG 😜 I know that wasn’t what you meant but I thought it was funny!
Whaha you always came up with crazy idea 🤣
Well that is what Fridays are for 😜
