If you think third-party widgets will fix your website's accessibility issues, it’s time to zoom out. 🔍 These tools can catch surface errors, but compliance requires manual testing too.

Accessibility is a systems issue. Build it in—don’t patch it on.

Getting Developers to Care about Accessibility: Carrots and Sticks Most developers aren't intentionally hostile to accessibility. They just weren’t taught about its importance. Plus, change is hard. Successful change requires understanding what actually motivates people, and applying the right pressure in the right places.

Pleading won't make devs care about accessibility. Strategy will. Incentives + real consequences = culture change. Great read from Sheri Byrne-Haber.

Bonus: it also helps your SEO.

Dialogs fail when focus fails. Move it in, keep it contained, return it correctly. Anything less breaks the experience. A crisp reminder from Nat Tarnoff.

Big circle and a small circle inside. The big circle is accessibility- the vast space of human capacities. Within that is the small circle of usability - the design for moments of human need

The small circle is now a dot. It’s is accessible design for the essential needs of people as defined by their particular capacities

A circle around that dot - how inclusive design can extend the benefit of accessible design for a broader audience

The black dot is now hanging off the edge of the circle. This is the problem for me. The inclusive design focuses to the broad audience and the essential needs are ignored or drift away from attention

Inclusive Design can be a problem.
