How I ship accessible UI—section-first BEM, stable hooks, no hash selectors.

Demonstrated on live weableColor and thaddeuskilo.design—not a separate product SKU.

Methodology pointer—the full SACA walkthrough lives on the weableColor case study (Design & accessibility section).

Methodology, not a launch

SACA (Sexy Accessibility Compliance Alliance) is how I build: `saca-{section}__{element}--{modifier}` on interactive and layout nodes, WCAG 2.1 AA+ as the default bar, and no selectors on Emotion hash classes.

SACA shows up in shipped UI—Figma plugin panels, VS Code chrome, and this portfolio—not as a separate product pitch.

Read the proof on weableColor

The weableColor case study includes a dedicated “Design & accessibility (SACA)” section: `saca-wc-*` hooks, Test-with-eyez mindset, and marketplace copy guardrails. This site uses `saca-portfolio-*` with the same rules.

  • Pattern: section-first BEM, extend in dedicated CSS files
  • Contrast measured on chrome and content; no legal certification over-claim
  • In-house IDE experiments use the same hook discipline privately
