Had a eureka! moment earlier as to how I'm going to COVID-safe my house for trick-or-treaters...

horned figure peering creepily out the window of the front of my house

I've started to run a11y tests before any build/deploy, I do care about a11y, but I still got a lot to learn in that area.

It's not bullet proof, but it's a start.
