Talks 🎙
---------------

►Talk 1 (19:15 - 20:00 CET)

Title:
Building accessible web applications: **What, Why, Who and How**

Description:

I think accessibility is a topic that anyone who builds user interfaces for humans on the web should be aware of. In this talk I'm going to answer the "What, Why, Who, and How" of web accessibility to the best of my knowledge and provide you with the tools to build more accessible frontends.

About the speaker:

**Konstantin Tieber** identifies as an accessibility nerd and hopes to spark a similar interest among web developers, who have yet to discover it. He builds interactive user interfaces using the Angular frontend framework at LeanIX. As an avid reader of his content on the web, he is especially to have Manuel join for this installation of the Bonn Code meetup.

►Talk 2 (20:10 - 20:45 CET, with open end)

Title:
Building The Most **Inaccessible** Site Possible With A Perfect Lighthouse Score

Description:

Google’s built-in testing tool Lighthouse judges the accessibility of our websites with a score between 0 and 100. It’s laudable to try to get a high grading, but a score of 100 doesn’t mean that the site is perfectly accessible. To prove that, Manuel Matuzović carried out a little experiment, which he'll share with us in this talk.

About the speaker:

**Manuel Matuzović** is a frontend developer who's passionate about HTML and CSS. He works for the City of Vienna where he builds accessible frontends and assesses the quality of sites built by others. He's a certified accessibility expert, auditor, teacher and consultant. He writes about accessibility, HTML, and CSS on his personal blog matuzo.at and htmhell.dev.
