A frontend is necessarily dynamic and requires JavaScript. What you are describing requires a separate backend be written and hosted either locally or remotely. That backend would hit the Xenforo WebAPI and load a static page for the user whenever they wanted to view a thread or navigate.

Doesn't XenForo already work without JS?
The only major missing functionality is the reaction bar, not sure why they didn't implement it with the css hover thing.

PHPBB works fine without Javascript.
About half of chan software works fine without JavaScript.
Same with Wiki software.

They use page reloads instead of dynamic elements.

Last time I tried it, it was nearly unusable. KF was one of the first sites on Tor that I enabled JS on. That was back in 2016.

Okay great you got me. I'll just rewrite a backend that does reloads after it queries the farms WebAPI, and host it somewhere. It'll totally stay up.

What's the point of a separate frontend when you can use current FE with no JS?
