   …and the toggle on my site’s footer is always there to turn off the current page’s CSS (opt-in 🙃)

   1. Zach Leatherman 7 min later

                  @jgarber @zachleat @McNeely Shouldn't we do April 24th? That way it maps to 424, the "failed dependency" error code. Let's see what pages are independent of JS.

                     @macdonst @jgarber @McNeely sold! We should also encourage folks to browse with JS disabled 😬

                           @zachleat @jgarber @McNeely I created a repo and bought a domain for it. Please let me know and I'll add you as a contributor so you can make changes.

                           The domain js-naked-day.org should be live later today.

                                 @zachleat @jgarber @McNeely Not yet, I decided to get the site up and running first. I still need to make it look a bit nicer but hope to write the post tonight or tomorrow.

                        @zachleat @macdonst @jgarber YES. If naked CSS day is about seeing how the structure of your website looks without styles then we should absolutely do the same for how well your site works without JavaScript 👏

      @zachleat @macdonst @McNeely JS Naked day ?Like it ! Website up and ready for it ! 💪

      In case I forget to push the build that day, I got a js-script (!) that will remove all script from the page, prevent any script execution and then self-destruct ! does that count ? 😆🙈🤦‍♂️ #Belt-and-braces

         @villepreux @zachleat @McNeely Sounds amazing to me. Can you send a PR to js-naked-day.org so other people can re-use what you’ve done to make it easier to participate?

         1. McNeely 5 days later

            @macdonst @villepreux @zachleat I love that idea! Having a script that disables JavaScript is definitely in keeping with the spirit of JS free (even if it's not "technically" JS free).

         2. Antoine 5 days later

            @macdonst @zachleat @McNeely

            Sure ! Did the PR.

            I also un-minified and commented my naked-days scripts in case that can help someone !

            (In the process of un-minifying the whole site. Web should be more open)

            Scripts are not perfect, as they are, in my case, just fallbacks in case I missed the date and did not recompile my (static) site 😆
