Accessibility in open source works best when the whole community can take part.
The Open Source Accessibility Framework is a community-led, practical approach that helps projects integrate accessibility one step at a time. It offers clear actions for maintainers and contributors, encourages public progress, and creates more opportunities for people with disabilities to shape the work.
It’s not a certification or score. It’s a model for shared learning, accountability, and continuous improvement.

“Ignorance will break all software.”
Log4Shell’s one line of code broke the internet, and taught us all a lesson we can’t ignore. As Christian Grobmeier, maintainer of Log4J puts it: "Learning is the only cure for ignorance. So just keep learning."
