Notes from real projects: design, accessibility, front end.
- Web accessibility, properly: a practical guide for designers, developers and the people who pay them What WCAG 2.2 AA asks for, what the law says in Brazil, the EU and Ireland, what to test and how, what not to build — and how to defend the work to a client.
- Vibe coding, with and without knowing what you’re doing AI writes code fast for everyone. What changes is whether anyone can tell good output from bad — and that still takes someone who knows the craft.
- Not an overlay: building an honest accessibility panel Why one-line accessibility widgets fail, and what a preferences panel should do instead — built by a colour-blind designer who codes.
- Design tokens that survive the handoff Naming, scaling and shipping tokens so Figma and code never drift apart, even two years in.

Ritalino
The big, calm one. Ritalino takes care of briefs, budgets and timelines — and of the afternoon nap, curled up with Sky.
Sky and Ritalino are my dogs — family, and the most enthusiastic members of the team. They answer here while I design and code.
— Laures
Hi! I’m Sky. Laures is our human — we’re family, so Ritalino and I run his front desk while he’s busy designing and coding.
