ALS Resource Tool
2023ProjectInternal / private
Internal ALS resource-discovery web app for clinicians and patient families, built at Boston Children's Hospital. The whole product was scoped to Section 508 / WCAG 2.1 AA — accessibility was the bar, not an afterthought. React frontend wired to a Strapi headless CMS so non-technical staff could update content without a deploy. Swagger-documented REST API for self-service contributor onboarding. Search and filter UX validated with real ALS clinicians; iterated on care-workflow ergonomics across the engagement.
