[tatewaky]

ni @kowdykung where you able to fix this?

[KaneMorgan]

The failing specs look like they're for the accessibility stuff which shouldn't really stop the project running.

Error: listen EADDRINUSE 127.0.0.1:8080

Is it as simple as you have something else running on port 8080?

[AP-Nothize]

Try to apply #57 so that you can pass --port 8081 when running scripts/web manually.
