As a Challenge.gov product team, in order to ensure the product features and updates we develop are secure, high quality and usable, we would like to establish a checklist of requirements we will follow as part of each user story.

Acceptance criteria:

• [ ] A definition of done (DoD) is established (see example in comments below)
