What is Scarlett Panda?

The function shouldShowAnnouncementBar determines whether the announcement bar should be displayed on the Scarlett Panda website. This function checks two main conditions: whether the 'showAnnouncementBar' flag in the SQUARESPACE_CONTEXT object is set to true, and whether the announcement bar has been previously closed as stored in localStorage. In case of any errors, it defaults to showing the announcement bar for reliability. This functionality ensures that important announcements are displayed to users if required.
