In my second month as the DLAM Digital Accessibility Intern, I’ve been contributing key accessibility and UX improvements to an open-source sheet music application. This blog describes how a GenAI workflow helped fast-track my understanding of Python coding, and allowed me to make impactful changes to an open-source project, through a process I call “Educated Prompting”.

In this blog post, I write about what digital accessibility is, how we can make digital content more accessible, and why all of this matters in the first place. Also, this is a sort of diary of my first month as a Digital Accessibility Intern: what I have been up to, and my thoughts about various activities I have undertaken.
