We barely use JQuery and it adds to each page:

  • significant extra load time
  • significant page weight (bytes transferred and number of requests) - currently about a third of all bytes transferred on home page
  • potential security issues due to an old version being used
    It should be relatively simple to replace this on the site with direct DOM manipulation.

We should remove the JQuery dependency entirely by:

  • removing the PDFs list and linking to genderarchive.org.uk
  • removing the filtering on the Local Organisations page and just make it have a load of headings instead
