A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

A front end engineer designs and checks a website for accessibility, only to find that testers with disabilities use completely different methods to navigate the website.

Testing your product for accessibility yourself will never compare with testing with real users. Even if you have a disability yourself.

Test for accessibility with automated tools, test manually yourself, then test with people with disabilities.
