Accessibility: What is it, Why care about it, and How to add it
We all know that we should "make reasonable accommodations" for those with disabilities in our work, but what could we not be considering? In this talk, Jack Merideth will walk you through how to approach your design and development work to account for all persons, whether they are blind, deaf, or neuro-divergent.
Attendees will walk away with knowledge of what disabilities we can account for as designers and developers, some common pitfalls in design and development, and a few tricks to go above and beyond "reasonable accommodation."
