Above link uses just CSS, no JS. Also, JS is absolutely bare (and free to be read), for hamburger toggle in mobile view, and some less jquery once a person logs in. It uses Cirrus UI framework. I'd love to provide user an even smaller css and 0 js, but I'm afraid I can't do better than this yet.

Text based? I've read this fantastic book "The Art of UNIX Programming" by Steven which emphasizes text over WASM blob interchange for readability. I think the biggest problem lies in responsibility. Projects should have single owners who should also remove code which isn't required and ensure bareism, especially ones with tons and tons of lines, which consist of so many today.
Just 1 thing needs to be done, make easier for a majority to use bare, secure software and make it harder for majority to use gigantic, malware injected software. And things would become better.
