Ideally, I’d just grab the framework files, import them from my JavaScript, and then carry on with my file:// URL. I mean, you can literally just download the files to a folder on your computer. It's not like it stops working just because it's not hosted on a javascript cdn

That's what I've been doing for decades, but in current browsers `import` doesn't work with file urls, and whatever you download will need that
