I've been staring at this photo noticing more and more that makes me chuckle, latest addition is the gremlin hanging out in the top right corner.

Absolutely agree, I found it so helpful to have the video playing while I was reading along with the transcript. Something about doing both helped me focus and understand better than if I had done one or the other separately.

It's magical when products feel tailor made for you and "just work", that's how I'd describe Polypane.
It's the vibe I strive for with Be Inclusive too, so being able to easily jump from one to the other now is a full circle moment for me, so proud!
#SotB26 is 2 weeks out, get your tickets ASAP!

If you do any sort of accessibility auditing then
1. Polypane and Be Inclusive are now a killer combo for your productivity
2. You should probably get a ticket to SotB, They're sold out in person but still have online tickets available.

I’ve just received an accessibility audit of my Open Collective project page but I can’t implement the changes bc it’s a 3rd party platform. Are there donation platforms available in Europe/UK that have good accessibility (i.e. meets WCAG to a high standard) that folks would recommend?

It's unfortunate that you had to back them into a corner to finally admit it. They do tend to assume a high level of autonomy and aren't used to being questioned like that. Good for you for staying firm and getting to the bottom of it!

What a nightmare, I've been there too with hosting providers making changes indiscriminately and we're left investigating what's going on. Hard to fault them, besides the lack of communication, because they're just trying to keep their servers online.
Thanks for the ideas & resources at the end!

We all could use more clients like that!
I think the only thing better is when our own excitement about the work wins them over and they start to share that same sentiment too by the end. Best feeling ever to geek out with them about the little things that collectively matter so much.

Moo for me too, a huge reason is their offer of Printfinity (www.moo.com/us/about/pri...) which I used to make some colorful options to choose from.
It made the whole process so much more fun, and it's a good conversation starter as well! stevenwoodson.com/blog/one-of-...

Ah I've heard of Enhance but not this demo, I see what you mean now. Bummer it's not "online" anymore and it seems the site that had a blog post deep dive is gone too.
At least the code is still available at github.com/enhance-dev/...

I had the same problem til I found Plan to Eat, it's a meal planner + grocery list app. The ingredients needed for your plan get auto added to the shopping list.
It intentionally doesn't have a 1:1 comparison for the pantry, but there's a staples list that's similar.
