Elm on security focused web browsers?

Hi Elmsians,

I’m someone who has written software since I was a teenager but never got into webware. Elm has been peaking my interest due to its functional approach, but i’m also a Guix user, and our community typically use browsers like IceCat that prohibit non-trivial javascript. So I’m wondering, have people had trouble getting their programs running on these type of web browsers? I’m looking for a nice way to program the web that will be accessible to folks who choose to follow anti-commercial practices of internet use.

See if the Elm SPA example completely works in that browser:

https://elm-pages.com/ and I think GitHub - lucamug/elm-starter: An Elm-based bootstrapper for Elm applications can both be compiled to html+css without JS, depending on what you’re building. Some websites require JS no matter what though.

it doesn’t load on icecat, unfortunately, and even if i whitelist the JS most of it remains broken
