A presentation at Laracon AU in in Sydney NSW, Australia by Jess Budd
Javascript frameworks get a bad rap when it comes to accessibility. But is it the frameworks creating the barriers, or us as the developers?
Follow me on a journey through div soup, past the lost focus and under the unchanged titles. Find out: is there actually anything in React preventing us from building accessible web apps? You’ll get a high level overview of fundamental issues, how to address them, and how to ensure your website is accessible and inclusive to all.
The following resources were mentioned during the presentation or are useful additional information.
