Here's my static website tech stack! What's yours?

Here's the landing page that I recently made for my startup, Mist. for Chrome: https://www.usemist.com

My Tech Stack:

-- SASS: Makes it easier working with CSS and also has some extra features

-- ScrollPrefixer: An npm package that makes it easier to add onScroll effects

-- Some vanilla JS: I prefer to do everything with CSS, but there are limits, that's why I ended up using about 20 lines of javascript for the Light and Dark Modes.

    Currently using Bootstrap, plan to move to tailwind.

    Mostly vanilla js. But I'm using Vuejs for simple static web apps.

    I would add email capture before sending them to the form (it takes ages to load).

      Thanks for the advice, I'm definitely going to look into that

      I also usually just start with Bootstrap and copy/paste from examples. ;-)

      I like the light/dark toggle @aposded. Did you look into supporting the user's preference?

        Exactly. Tailwind doesn't have that at the moment.

        Problem with Bootstrap is it is very basic. We have pushed it to its limit.
