Technical notes
The template uses conditional formatting to handle missing images gracefully. The color scheme uses #004C54 for headers with a light gray background (#f8f9fa) and borders (#a2a9b1) that maintain sufficient contrast for accessibility. The styling includes responsive padding and margins optimized for both desktop and mobile viewing.
