## Known issues
There is an issue where the CSS file is not being received properly when included in an HTML file on Firefox based browsers. It works fine on Chromium based browsers, and Firefox loads the CSS file just fine when loaded directly, so I'm not sure what the issue is. If Firefox is behaving strangely try it with something Chromium based.
I have not debugged the issue yet becayse I'm not hung up on broad compatability for the scale that this project is at, and it works fine on Chromium browsers.
