To admit frankly, l am a non technical person who would be tinkering with the task of creating a full fledged website for a travel company. For me, it's going to be a fun activity. There are a lot of nerds out here who can help me with their expertise. Many thanks to you all😊😊😊

First create the HTML DOM, then beautify with CSS, then script stuff with JS for functionality you can't do with HTML and Backend.

And read up on HTML tags, please. There's too much div-only crap already. And better go basic than fancy; fancy is more technical debt that blows up (or leaks your users passwords) along the road

Don't listen to the naysayers, they never did a website from scratch. And the usual frameworks have gone complex to a point that learning them and adjusting them to your needs eats more time than creating a basic website from scratch, while your websites performance and accessibility tanks. Imagine, a button not working just because you blocked third-party scripts!

Also enjoy your SQL injections, XSS injections and various other fun things that frameworks solve for you.

they don't solve them. They make it harder for you to make mistakes. Doesn't stop a capable developer from still introducing vulnerabilities.

that html page without js and just links is MORE secure than anything with JS.
