Key Insights

This PR was a long one and took about a year to get merged, and this is not my first experience grooming a PR to well over a year. It is something I have noticed in large mission critical projects. Especially when your contribution is a whole new feature and now just a simple fix.

Having your PR stay for well over a year is natural for these projects.

Motivation

The reason I made this PR was to improve the UX of the Remix IDE as it had been a predominantly Crypto, core backend IDE, my aim was to provide some aesthetic pleasure to the overall IDE so it would be at least cool to use 😀
