So let's show off what you can do without JavaScript...but also include SCSS as a dependency when the opening paragraph complains about a JavaScript dependency? Madness...but I digress.

Some of these are cool examples. Others, like the modal, won't scale very well because now you can trigger modals by tabbing (breaks keyboard navigation) or most of the form examples as you'll likely hit many endpoints that require JSON (which yeah I know "you're making a web app why can't your endpoints accept a form?" but as we all know it's never that simple and you might want to provide different behaviors for, say, showing a progress bar or disabling certain features during the submissions or a THOUSAND other things).

I get axing dependencies. I really do. I wrote msngr.js entirely in ECMAScript 5 using zero dependencies so I'd have the most flexibility possible. But at the same time overcomplicating your code to the point where it's breaking standard practices or making it un-maintainable simply to axe a dependency is the wrong way to go.

But by all means keep making cool stuff that shows off how versatile CSS is! Just don't expect to use all the CSS tricks you learn in a production environment.
