- The team would like to set up figma files on github.
- HawaiiZoningAtlas.com scored a 44 out of 100. We should aim for a score of 70+
- Problems that the team had with the website:
- Map was not responsive on multiple viewports.
- Users (especially colorblind) cannot differentiate colors on the filters.
- Users skipped the legend/popups on when loading the website.
- The search function is not visible.
- Subtractive logic of grey areas is confusing to users.
