Session: Five quick wins to make your website more accessible, inclusive and easy to use
We want the web to be usable by as many people as possible. Yet accessibility often comes as an afterthought - or even worse - we don’t think about it at all. What is accessibility anyway? In this talk, you will learn how to make accessibility a part of your development process and your way of thinking, as well as five concrete things that will improve your website and make it more accessible for everyone.In order to get the most out of the session, it's good if you have some basic knowledge about HTML and CSS.
