July 2025 monthly summary for gr4vy/gr4vy-embed: Delivered a critical accessibility enhancement for the popup by implementing Popup Accessibility Language Handling. The popup now declares the correct language via the HTML 'lang' attribute, passes the locale to redirectDocument, and defaults to 'en' when no locale is provided. This ensures assistive technologies announce the correct language, improving usability for international users and aligning with accessibility best practices. The change is tracked in commit 926da7d1aae73b60814b5ed7018f01e0e6f615f2 (fixed popup html lang attribute for accessibility TA-11528 (#330)).
