Creating (In)Accessible Websites - Why Automated Reviews Are Never Enough!


Details
Automated accessibility testing tools like Lighthouse judge your website with scores, whereby higher scores usually mean more accessible. However, getting the perfect score from a tool does not mean that your website is accessible - our guest speaker, Manuel, carried out an experiment to prove that. After his presentation, we will discuss what you can do to test if your work is really accessible and does not only get a high score.
