Ever wanted a package that disables the mouse cursor one day a week so you can test keyboard accessibility as a team? No? Well here you go anyway.
This package can be installed into a modern JavaScript app to inject a CSS styling developer tool that disables the mouse cursor, with a banner to notify developers of its use. It's intended to encourage development of better keyboard support through regular browser testing (you are testing, aren't you?).

- Node.js
- npm
- Install the package
npm install no-mouse-days --save-dev- Import the package into your project for all times
import "no-mouse-days"- Import and conditionally apply it in development, if you want
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') {
import("no-mouse-days")
.then((data) => {
// no-op
})
}- Or apply it one day of the week, e.g. on Mondays
let date = new Date()
let dayOfWeek = date.getDay()
if (dayOfWeek === 1) {
import("no-mouse-days")
.then((data) => {
// no-op
})
