Most accessibility issues aren’t hard to fix, they’re hard to notice.

Inclusive design starts with awareness. Color contrast, keyboard focus, alt text, labels,
small details that shape someone’s entire experience.

Good UX invites.

Accessibility and UX aren’t separate disciplines — they’re the same conversation.

Accessible design means:
- Clear structure and focus order
- Readable typography and color contrast
- Interfaces usable without a mouse
- Inclusive content and language

Can everyone use what you’ve built? If the answer isn’t clear, that’s where accessibility begins.

What’s your biggest obstacle making your website and content accessible for everyone? #a11y #webdev #accessibility

Definitely not a fan and pretty inaccessible imo
Apple's Liquid Glass iOS looks futuristic, but is it usable? Transparency obscures UI elements, smaller tap targets, controls vanish unpredictably. Sleek doesn't always mean functional.

What's your experience with the new iOS?
