Hi HN,

Over the past few months, I’ve been exploring how far modern CSS can go on its own. The result is an ebook called "You Don’t Need JavaScript".

It’s a collection of UI components (animations, modals, dark mode, etc.) built entirely with CSS, along with explanations of the techniques and philosophy behind them. The main idea: use the simplest tool that gets the job done, without sacrificing accessibility or creativity.

I’d love feedback, whether on the concept, the techniques, or even the way it’s presented.
