Modern CSS Upgrades to Improve Accessibility
CSS features and behaviors have grown exponentially over the past few years, so let's dive into features that can enhance the accessibility of interactive experiences.
Most features are well supported across evergreen browsers so you can start using them right away! Others make for excellent progressive enhancements, meaning they will provide an even more optimal experience when used in a supporting browser. We'll also sneak a peek at incoming features that directly impact accessibility, and that you can provide feedback on to the CSS Working Group.
While encouraging the development of inclusive experiences is the goal of this talk, we are pretty sure you’ll pick up a few fresh CSS ideas to use in all kinds of projects too ;-)
Stephanie will also giving a workshop on Building Interactive, Accessible Components on Monday, October 6. Details live soon!
