NIT feedback otherwise LGTM. I also looked into Area tags and found that they were treated similarly in Firefox but not in chrome/safari it didn't look like.

[lolaodelola]

Thanks @HaTheo! I think we may need more discussion on the area tags.

@HaTheo can you leave a review? you only left a comment :)

[HaTheo]

NIT: Calling it out as this seems auxiliary like something JetBrains added. Might be good to separate if we feel like this is a helpful addition to '.gitignore', but that might be personal preference.

[lolaodelola]

I manually added this following the existing pattern. You think this should be taken out and put in a different PR?

[HaTheo]

NIT: Should explicitly say without click listener for clarity.

[lolaodelola]

You mean like no href and no click listener?

[HaTheo]

Yes, since it's broken out into three options: a (represented as a hyperlink); a (without href); and a (with a click listener) there's a bit of overlap between an a without an href and an a with a click listener. I just thought specifying it would clear up any ambiguity. I was thinking this could say "a (without href or click listener)"

[lolaodelola]

Gotcha!

@HaTheo I've gone ahead and implemented your changes bar the .gitignore one (see comment).

@rahimabdi @shirsha Do you folks mind having a look at this?
