Designing accessible applications


All users should be able to use all applications, despite any kind of condition (blindness, colorblindness, deafness, ...). Without accessibility, software excludes the people who can not use them. I will introduce accessibility, the accessibility stack, and the good practices to keep in mind while designing applications so they get accessible by design.

All users should be able to use all applications, despite any kind of condition (blindness, colorblindness, deafness, ...). Without accessibility, software excludes the people who can not use them. Fixing the accessibility of an application after having developped it can be quite costly, while designing applications with accessibility in mind from the start does not cost much.

Actually, for a fair part, accessibility in design boils down to well-known good practice, such as structuring the application logically without any particular rendering in mind.

I will introduce to accessibility, the accessibility stack, and the good practices to keep in mind while designing applications so they get accessible by design.
