You should check your stats some time and see how many of your users fail to load your JS, rather than are capable of loading your JS. You might be surprised, especially if you have lots of mobile traffic.


Just out of curiosity, what's the standard way to gather that data? I guess you could put a non-JS request (like an image) and a JS request (like XMLHttpRequest) on each page, and compare numbers.


A `<noscript>` tag seems most intuitive to me, perhaps paired with some server-side Google Analytics.


Also, most of the corporate people still have forced IE installed on their work laptops. SPAs do generally break in IE.
