Week 1We set up a GitHub projects board to keep track of our work. Ahmed has been going through technical writing courses and accessibility learnings. Damilola has been supporting with this and getting up to speed with Wagtail ways of working / context. |

Week 2Accessibility learningFor accessibility learnings, I have selected the following resources:
Anything from https://www.w3.org/WAI/fundamentals/ is great, but this is my top 3 and should already take a few hours to go through. There are a lot of accessibility resources out there. I picked those ones because they’re as official as it gets, very clear and not too opinionated All of this information (and more) is also packaged in an official free course: https://www.w3.org/WAI/courses/foundations-course/. It seems to take on the order of 15-20 hour to complete. That’s quite the commitment so can’t necessarily recommend it but perhaps worth a trial. Interviews@waju-ire drafting a plan so we can think of who to interview Getting to know WagtailWe went through the CMS looking at relevant features, and reviewing different aspects of the project where accessibility matters |

👋 @waju-ire, @activus-d and I @thibaudcolas are starting the accessibility features documentation project as part of the December 2023 cohort of Outreachy. I thought I’d start this thread so we can share occasional updates.
