JavaScript is fine as long as it degrades gracefully when disabled by the user.

That feature sounds very useful.

Yeah, it’s a long story but while working somewhere they used a terrible SaaS for their day-to-day operations and I eventually built my own that they still use (I don’t work there anymore).

The long string would be a bunch of specifications sent via email by clients (it’s an email-heavy industry) and I got tired of copying and pasting each part line by line (it was also hard because they weren’t sent as separate lines, but used a character as a separator) so I built it for myself.

I guess that’s the magic of eating your dog food.
