Is it me or is *a lot* of owncloud 5 functionality relying heavely on Javascript, which do not degrade gracefully in browser whixh do not support or has disabled the use of Javascript?
Is this intentionally, or are these bug reports?

There is quite some HTML generated through the js-files. I can not see why this would be required to be in the JS, and not could be handled through PHP.
When we could split functionality (through PHP) and user experience improvements (mostly js), we could support more browsers and make owncloud much easier to theme.
At the moment if someone would like to override the looks of a simple form, the JS file from the (core) app is required to be included and edited inside the theme. In my opinion this could and should be handled in another way.

If people would like some examples, Im happy to provide any..

Kind regards,


Stefan Nagtegaal
