        "project-weaknesses": "I think the core HTML/CSS layout is getting rather dated and could benefit quite a lot from moving into a more current FlexBox/Grid setup. Not only would it likely make it more consistent and easier to read, but also easier to customise.\n\nAlso, while I gather the TW core has gotten a lot less messy in recent iterations, there is definitely more work to do here. It can be bewildering to wrap your head around.",
