Elevator Pitch
Is it really possible to understand JavaScript and accessibility in 40 minutes? This presentation will discuss touch on all of the major concerns with dynamic content and accessibility. It could be awesome or it could be a disaster, but one thing’s for sure: there will be no slides, just live code.
Description
Accessibility is often seen as nebulous by designers and developers. It is particularly difficult if you don’t know anyone with disabilities or have never watched anyone with disabilities use a computer. In this talk, Karl Groves uses a live coding example to walk through the high level requirements for an accessible user experience that relies on JavaScript.
