Month: 2025-10 — Key delivery focused on accessibility enhancements in the design system repository nl-design-system/documentatie. Implemented a group of changes to align button interactions with WCAG 2.5.2 and 2.4.3, including the ability to prevent or undo actions on interactive elements, ensuring logical focus order after activation, and clarifying component documentation. This work reduces accessibility risk, improves keyboard and assistive technology usability, and standardizes interaction patterns across the design system. Impact includes broader user reach, smoother accessibility audits, and more consistent UX across products. Tech stack and practices demonstrated include design-system governance, WCAG guidance application, accessible component design, documentation updates, and strong commit hygiene.
