Anna Lonka

Worked extensively on City-of-Helsinki/hel-fi-drupal-grants, delivering a refactor of the status information display to standardize markup from divs to semantic lists, aligning Drupal-rendered output with the React frontend. This change improved accessibility and CSS stability, reducing UI inconsistencies and enabling faster future updates. The approach focused on maintainable HTML and Twig templating, ensuring that application status and attachment information are presented in a more robust, accessible structure. By emphasizing semantic HTML and consistent frontend development practices, the work addressed known display issues and reduced the risk of regressions, supporting a more reliable and maintainable user interface across platforms.
