Accessing Accessible Accessibility
The World Health Organization states that one billion people live with disabilities. And estimates put internet usage with a screen reader as high as 3.4% of all internet traffic around the world. Web accessibility can help.
So what is web accessibility and who needs it? Is engineering accessibility enough? How do you build an cross-functional accessibility culture? And what can you do to prevent regressions?
