Accessibility (when you don't have time to read the manual)
summary
Explains concrete steps: run Chrome Accessibility DevTools audits against WCAG 2.0 rules, fix labeled form fields, add alt text for meaningful images, bump text contrast, replace vague “click here” links, and set HTML lang. Notes an initial 330-item audit at one employer, then demonstrates live fixes and reruns until the report goes all green, and recommends keyboard + VoiceOver/ChromeVox testing and CI checks so the changes actually work in production.
