● Find and fix accessibility issues using automated tools and manual testing.
● Create reusable, maintainable UI components and integrate them with REST APIs.
● Follow secure coding practices based on OWASP guidelines.
● Make sure applications work across browsers and on both desktop and mobile.

● Color contrast requirements and text alternatives for images and icons
● Basic hands-on testing with at least one screen reader (NVDA, JAWS, or VoiceOver)

Tools and integration
● Understanding of REST APIs and JSON
● Basic Git (clone, branch, commit, pull requests)
