In firefox (at least in desktop version) you can disable javascript and css. Not sure if they are still downloaded.

For scripts: if script is disabled for a document, scripts are not downloaded. See https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/a5d9abfda1e26b1207... as of today

For stylesheets, I'm not certain how you're disabling them. Depending on how you do it, they may or may not get downloaded. The most common ways of disabling them result in them not being downloaded.

That one does not prevent downloading; just prevents application.
