While most fields are made up of just one input, like an email address, some fields (that are essentially one value) could be split into multiple inputs, like a sort code.

I was always interested in color science. In 2014, I gave a talk about CSS Color 4 at various conferences around the world called “The Chroma Zone” . Even before that, in 2009, I wrote a color picker that used a hidden Java applet to support ICC color profiles to do CMYK properly, a first on the Web at the time (to my.

In July 2016, I joined Uber as the first member of our Bangalore-based UX team. I was one of the earliest researchers at the company outside of the U.S., and at that point, the Bangalore office had just opened and things were still taking shape. It seemed overwhelming at first — being in a distributed office, not havi.

I’ve been employed for about a year now and many things are different compared to being a freelancer. One interesting thing in my specific situation is that I have to evaluate the accessibility of third-party tools regularly. Usually there’s no time for a full audit, I have to gain a good overview of the quality of a.

It’s 7:25 a.m. and I’ve already learned so much. Actually, I just wanted to write a few paragraphs for an article about accessibility in CSS before I go to work, but I got caught up reading about animation on the web and vestibular disorders. The articles I read written by Eric W. Bailey and Shell Little , Val Head ,.

When I talk about web accessibility at meet-ups and conferences, it’s safe to assume that at least one person will ask me something like “Yeah, accessibility sounds nice, but how many people are actually disabled? How many of my users are blind? And why would a blind person visit my website?” 1. Who gives a fuck?! We’.

Since the landmark Domino's case , I've been having some conversations about web accessibility with people who wouldn't ordinarily take an interest. Some of these conversations have been productive; others have not. The following is a dramatization based on true events. DEVELOPER: Alright, lads? So what's this accessi.

I just finished an accessibility audit for a client and I decided to share some quick checks I perform in every site I audit and build. It’s something that you can apply to your project right away, you don’t have to learn a tool or a software. Step 0: Automatic tests The first thing I do is run accessibility checks in.

Button placement on forms is often ignored or prioritised based on what looks good. But button placement can make or break a form, and a form can make or break a user’s experience. That’s why it’s essential to get it right. This is more challenging that in sounds because it depends on the buttons and the form in quest.
