A rough morning at HolyJS: when you decide how someone will spend the day — accessibility for the blind
summary
Talk discusses accessibility for blind users in consumer apps (example: taxi services), covering why relying on call-centers or 99% automated test coverage is insufficient, how to identify and prioritize accessibility bugs, and why testing with blind users and using screen readers differ. Presenters (accessibility experts) explain practical strategies for implementing and advocating for accessibility within product development and business contexts.
