Building an Accessibility Culture
summary
Created an intro-to-accessibility deck, an Accessibility Champions network, and a public Slack channel to centralize questions; integrated an accessibility linter (ESLint plugin) at warning level and a React component library called OUI with per-component accessibility docs; added Jira labels, GitHub PR templates, and onboarding sessions. Results: community audits happen unprompted, a colorblind line-graph fix ships to production in weeks, and teams demo and prioritize accessibility work across planning and QA.
