When captioning videos, you not only make your videos accessible but also expand your reach. But captioned videos won't matter if they're not good.

You can’t solve culture with technology…

Taking a closer look at the CSS focus pseudo-classes and exploring the differences between them to find out how you can style elements the way you want in all scenarios.

In the last couple of weeks, I had some encounters that made me think about the state of ableism. Turns out that despite a lot of slow but …

In our tech-focused society, there is this ever present notion that “accessibility will be solved by some technology”. But it won’t. Making things accessible is a fundamentally human challenge that needs human solutions in human contexts.

All of the things I get to say "I told you so" about, now.

Why I worry about the effect GitHub Copilot is having and will continue to have on the accessibility of the web at scale.

Are LLMs helpful tools to assist with making accessible front-end components? Let's find out.

Like many inventions before it, Generative AI is changing the way we do things. Like those inventions that went before it, Generative AI is capable of great good and great harm, and like the humans that used those inventions before us, we need to be smart about the way we use Generative AI.

The Accessibility Not-Checklist acts as a guide to make sure you haven’t missed anything. If you’re new to accessibility, the resource provides a foundation – it’s an overview of what you’ll need to consider, but it won’t teach you WCAG from front to back.

Web accessibility overlays are tools or technologies that aim to improve the accessibility of a website. However, claims that a website can be made fully compliant in an automated fashion are not realistic.

Footnotes are challenging for me, no matter how interested I am in their content.

HTML is often underestimated – it isn’t complicated and it isn’t strict, and you can start producing results with just a handful of elements. It isn’t creative like CSS, or energetic like JavaScript, but it quietly teams up with the browser to make a lot of the web work – much more than many people …

A blog post about the two standards that are actually inside of WCAG 2.

Recently a friend shared with me a "Custom GPT" called "Accessibility Copilot". This is one of many interesting applications of ChatGPT that are arriving to market at breakneck speed, but is unfortunately not something I would rely on for effective remediation of accessibility issues.

How “Exclusive Accordions” hinder especially people with disabilities to efficiently use web pages, and why that is a reason to be careful about making it easy to implement them.

The big drawback to refreshable braille devices has always been their cost. The loose rule of estimation applied to these products has translated into something like $100 to $150 per braille cell. A 40-cell display, in other words, may cost $4,000 to $6,000, while an 80-cell model will cost $8,000 to $12,000. And so it has been that, while desirable, braille computer access has been out of reach for many users of assistive technology.It is thus of great value to lower the cost of individual braille cells in order to manufacture Refreshable Braille Devices at a price that is affordable to the Visually Impared community.While commercially available braille displays use expensive piezo-electric actuated pins. This project employs an electromechanical system with off-the-shelf and easily manufacturable components, leveraging the accessibility of high-quality 3D Printers and micro-magnets to keep the cost low without compromising functionality.Support my work by buying me a coffee ☕: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/vjvaradaSource & Design files: https://hackaday.io/project/191181-electromechanical-refreshable-braille-module#HackadayPrize #hackadayprize #braille #assistivetechnology #assistivetech
