I Built a Government-Grade Button Clicking Certification Program (Because the World Needs It)

Source: DEV Community

This is a submission for the DEV April Fools Challenge ⚠️ NATIONAL CLICK THREAT LEVEL: ELEVATED Let me ask you something. You use buttons every day. Login buttons. Submit buttons. "Accept all cookies" buttons (without reading a single word). Elevator buttons. Crosswalk buttons that don't actually do anything. But have you ever been certified to click those buttons? No. You haven't. And frankly, it's reckless. That's why I built the International Bureau of Button Clicking Certification (IBCC) — a fully interactive, deeply useless, government-bureaucracy-themed web application that puts you through six increasingly absurd examinations to determine if you are, in fact, qualified to press a rectangular area on an illuminated screen. 🏛️ Why Button Clicking Certification Matters in 2026 Let's look at the facts: The average knowledge worker clicks 4,217 times per day. That's over 1.5 million clicks per year — completely unregulated. Zero countries currently require a clicking license. Zero.
