   This is because the scripts are being fetched and run after DOMContentLoaded event, so the solution is to use load event instead or check if DOMContentLoaded event has been fired:

   if (document.readyState === 'loading') document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', main); else main();

   Nope, then the solution is to use another service then.

   This is a bug.

   Rawgit.org works fine: https://ghcdn.rawgit.org/jason-s/embedded-blog-public/master/demos/gravity1/gravity1.html

   Rawgit is a third-party proxy server and could theoretically shut down at any time, while HTMLPreview is a client-side project without third-party servers (with an exception of external JS/CSS scripts, which are being proxied due to CORS). Because of this, the scripts are deferred and run past the DOMContentLoaded event. I can experiment with manually dispatch DOMContentLoaded event, but I am afraid this could have side effects on existing scripts (double dispatch).

   How about running all functions returned from getEventListener(document).DOMContentLoaded?

   @MaxLOh Do you mean getEventListeners()? It's only in Chrome DevTools. But I can manually dispatch DOMContentLoaded event like this: document.dispatchEvent(new Event('DOMContentLoaded', {bubbles: true, cancelable: true}));, although it may have side effects, which I wrote above.
