Supporting the Development of Accessible Websites
summary
A compact, developer‑focused resource called WebAIR presents concrete, code‑level checks (organized by links, images, forms) and avoids accessibility jargon; it results from 13 contextual inquiries, 26 interviews and multiple evaluations (lab: 48 students; field: 32 professionals; two‑week build study: 15 devs). Evaluations show participants rate it highly and one field study finds users identify significantly more problems with WebAIR, though some users gain false confidence and ask for more advanced examples.
