 **Pin the salt to use staticrypt in your CI in a build step** - if you want want the "Remember-me" or share features to work accross multiple pages or multiple successive deployment, the salt needs to stay the same ([see why](https://github.com/robinmoisson/staticrypt#why-does-staticrypt-create-a-config-file)).
