Accessibility-flavored React components make your design system delicious!

This month we have the pleasure to host international speaker Kathleen McMahon for her amazing talk about accessibility in design systems:

Abstract: design systems are a popular way for teams to flavour their design and development workflow. However, an often-missing ingredient in many design systems is a focus on accessibility best practices — especially when component libraries are involved. In this talk, we’ll take a look at how you can mix some commonly-used components with the ingredients of accessibility. Pair this with best practices guidance in your documentation, and you’ll have the recipe for a delectably inclusive design system.
