"A good gardener never needs shortcuts."

Meet Arnie

Arnie is a fictional old gardener. He has never used pesticides, synthetic fertilisers, or automated watering systems. Everything in his garden grows from scratch, naturally, and outlasts anything the neighbours grow with their chemical shortcuts. His tomatoes are legendary.

ArnieJS works the same way. 480+ UI components grown from pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No npm packages. No Webpack. No synthetic dependencies that break every six months when a maintainer renames a config option.

"My neighbour installed a framework. Now he spends weekends debugging peer dependency conflicts. My tomatoes are fine." — Arnie

✅ Zero build step — seeds don't need Webpack
✅ 3 files exactly — HTML + CSS + JS. That's it.
✅ Works anywhere — WordPress, Webflow, static HTML, React
❌ No jQuery, no GSAP, no React, no npm install
