This session will demonstrate how various assistive technologies work and illustrate how to craft more inclusive, accessible user experiences.

Accessibility is not about reducing everything down to the lowest common denominator; nor is it about abandoning branding, beauty, or creativity. It's about designing a great experience while simultaneously maximizing the number of people invited to enjoy that experience.

Takeaways from this session will include:

The importance of considering accessibility during the design process
Types of disabilities found on the web, and how design decisions impact their experiences
Specific design considerations including typography, color, and layouts
