Assistive technology makes our apps very inclusive for all users from various spectrums. It is relatively hard sometimes to make an existing app accessible. Still, if we have some knowledge of our accessibility APIs and with some empathy, we can seamlessly support a11y (Accessibility) for every new UI we write. This workshop will give you the tools and techniques to plan your UI-building workflow to support accessibility from day one.
