Let's close the loop on last week's Paragon/Reactstrap discussion.

Accessibility
Without Mark, what's our story for handling accessibility moving forward?

Theming vision/community engagement
Core FED has been chatting with community members about theming, and we met up with the Open team last week to discuss a clear vision for the future (notes here: 2018-02-27 Theming Meeting (FedX Core + Open Source)). We've got a rough idea of how we might want to approach this, but want to hear from you all (especially WL/Enterprise) about whether it makes sense for you.

Notes

Reactstrap

  • Paragon as design system
    • Splitting up edx-specific stuff vs primitives
    • Breaking up builds (everything vs. primitives-only)

Accessibility

  • Unmeeting still happening!
  • Should we discuss more as part of FedX?
    • But FedX is usually pretty busy as-is
    • Can we use our hour more effectively?
      • Not everything is relevant to everyone
      • Is this an important meeting?
    • Unmeeting as accessibility office hours
  • Can teams handle their own accessibility without a dedicated expert on staff?
    • Where do people bring their a11y questions?
      • FedX room
      • a11y room
      • Bring it to the unmeeting

Theming

  • Styling theming vs. comp theming
    • WL uses comp theming to add features
      • Should this be a switch?
    • Comp theming limitations:
      • Underscore doesn't work
      • React won't work!
    • Text theming – is this a thing we want to explore?
      • Maybe?
  • Comp theming – partial templates
    • Need small, stable API
