Define coding standards, review guidelines, and architectural decision records (ADRs) for the frontend chapter

Collaborate with backend teams to design and consume RESTful and GraphQL APIs with strong typing (OpenAPI codegen, Apollo)
Ensure pixel-perfect implementation of UX designs from Figma, maintaining consistency across breakpoints and devices

Enforce accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA) across all components, supporting screen readers and keyboard navigation
Conduct thorough code reviews and contribute to a culture of quality and continuous improvement
