Is the Doctype a necessary part of the source code to help user agents interpret the page correctly?

Leaving out the Doctype may cause user agents to interpret the page in 'quirks mode'.

I have added <!DOCTYPE html> to the first line of index.html. I believe this fixes this issue.

Sounds good to me
