Remake it
Build one interactive web page: A bakery's “open now, until 16:00”, worked out from the real UK time, on a notched tag rather than a box. Set it on an invented business called Sampleton, with its own drawn or generated pictures and no one else's files. It suits: A client with a genuinely live fact: opening hours, the next slot, today's special. Do not let it fail the way this kind of piece usually does: Labels too small to read: the exemplar's tag text was 8px. It must work with the keyboard, on a phone, with reduced motion respected and no text under 12px. Tell me which libraries you chose and why.
