Enhancing User Experience with Angular Forms
Angular Forms play a crucial role in creating intuitive and responsive web applications. The talk will focus on the various techniques that can be used to create better user experience with Angular Forms. Topics covered include reactive forms, template-driven forms, input validation, custom form controls, and form submissions. The audience will learn how to create forms that are accessible, responsive, and easy to use, thus improving user engagement and satisfaction. The talk will include live demonstrations and code examples to help the audience gain a deeper understanding of Angular Forms.
Web Accessibility - Best Practices
When sites are correctly designed, developed and edited, generally all users have equal access to information and functionality. Accessibility is often forgotten by developers, even in 2019; as a result, people with disabilities get left behind. Fortunately, some techniques can help kick start the process. In this talk, you’ll learn hands-on skills for developing inclusively and how developers can hard-code accessibility into their workflow.
How do we build accessible web applications?
The answer is to ensure that people with disabilities can enjoy the full use of our web applications; they can access content, navigate our web applications successfully, engage with different elements, etc.
This talk will walk attendees through Web Accessibility best practices while sharing experiences and lessons learned in various areas such as:
1) Website Presentation
*Descriptive text
*Nested headings
*Colors
*Clear forms
*Uniform labels
*Clean code
*Landmarks
*Iframes
2) Website Appearance
*Zoom text
*Color contrast ratio
*Distinctive links
*Consistent layout and navigation
*Content Alternatives
*Descriptive alt text
3) Website Usability
*Keyboard only
*Focus indicator
*Skip navigation
*Sitemap
*Language
A Guide To User-Centered Design
User centered design plays a vital role in product validation. A lot of developers and designers consider design as just pixels (oh! this interface looks good; a common statement). Without considering:
1) "how?" the design works.
2)"who" the design is for.
3)"why" the design.
At the time of writing this proposal, there are only a few tutorials on this. We'll take a look at what to put into consideration when designing applications for various platforms(web and mobile). I would share in detail my experience with designing user-centered cross platform applications.
Improving digital well-being
Digital well-being initiative reflects a wider public awareness that technology is not an unbridled force for good. Inline with this, it is necessary for designers and developers to build and design applications that user's won't detest and end up uninstalling. This session explains how this can be achieved by outlining in detail, best practices with reference to design guidelines and best practices.
