Session
What is digital accessibility and why does it matter?
Do you know what accessibility is and why it's critical for 20% or more of your users? Have you ever heard of WCAG, POUR or ARIA?
Accessibility should be a key element of our processes, but many people haven't even heard of it.
In this introductory session you'll learn about assistive devices and technologies, accessibility standards and tools, and come away with quick and easy next steps for making your sites and applications more accessible to all users, including disabled ones.
Accessibility should be fundamental to the development process, but it isn’t. Most dev/designer/PMs haven’t even heard about it, let alone understand what it actually means. I want to give a basic intro + next steps so people can introduce a11y & inclusive design into their own companies/workflows.
