Debugging Accessibility with Alice Boxhall

In this talk, Alice Boxhall will talk about developing the Accessibility Developer Tools extension and library – the technical challenges involved and the features it provides for diving into accessibility problems – as well as giving a preview of the work being done on Chrome’s DevTools to add accessibility debugging information. Alice will also be looking for your thoughts and questions on what features would help you with your accessibility work!
