Hireup
Revamping Hireup's design system for accessibility excellence
Working closely with the lead front-end developer, we consolidated and updated the Hireup design system. From the get-go, our main objective was to guarantee accessibility compliance for individuals with disabilities. This approach aligned with Hireup’s values and promised a more inclusive and user-friendly experience for everyone engaging with the platform.
Accessibility should be a priority
Throughout the project, I found myself immersed in the intricacies of design and development, collaborating with the team to ensure every aspect met the highest standards of accessibility. We meticulously reviewed and adjusted elements, from colour contrasts to navigation structures, ensuring that every user could navigate the platform seamlessly, regardless of their abilities.
Witnessing the transformation of the design system was incredibly fulfilling. Each adjustment we made felt like a step forward in terms of compliance and enhancing the overall user experience. Knowing our efforts positively impacted end users' lives was gratifying.
This experience reinforced the importance of prioritising accessibility in all future projects, ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital landscape.
