The page only says “You need to enable JavaScript to run this app.”

I expected some kind of live demo, so I enabled Javascript. It turned out to be a static page with text. Not even a toggle-able menu on narrow screens, just a static page.

Why does it need Javascript to render a static page?

It is React based on the unminified source files that I can see.
