Yes, the web client makes heavy use of javascript and browsers with javascript disabled won't be able to work.

You may be confusing Java runtime (JRE) and JavaScript.
JRE runs Java applets launched from some browsers, which is very rare. JRE should only be installed on a PC if you have a specific requirement. Java security settings should lock down all but trusted sites.
JavaScripts runs on all browsers and is used by most web pages. Hit F12 on any page to get an xray view of the page - you will likely see lots of lines beginning <script.
