Last time I checked the security requirements for web application that
do not rely on JavaScript was too complicated. I preferred to forget
about it.

See 
https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet.html

The easiest path is (was?) to rely on a token sent by JavaScript.
Meanwhile JavaScript brings other problems... It seems to me the
browser paradigm with the _JavaScript_ wanna be sandbox is the wrong
way forward. I would much prefer the modern approach where a peer
expose an API and people build clients.

There is proof of concept bulletin board using gnunet
