Everyone deserves to use the Internet. An estimated 1.3 billion people experience significant disability. That's 16percent of the world's population, or one in six of us. At the same time, over 96 percent of the one million most popular websites have an accessibility issue. Add to this the massive rise in legal cases around sites not being accessible, including Beyonce, Disney, and Netflix, and you have an important topic that more and more people are starting to engage with. In this updated and revamped second edition of the Amazon technology chart-topping Practical Web Accessibility, you'll be guided through a broad range of disabilities and access needs. You'll understand the ways these users typically engage with the web, the barriers they often face, and practical advice on how your websites and content can be compliant, but more than that, inclusive and enjoyable to use. There's also a new chapter on "Outsourcing Accessibility," exploring third party "bolt-on" tools, "build your own website" platforms like Wix, and popular design systems. You'll explore whether they're helpful or detrimental in the fight to make the web more accessible. For anyone, regardless of what they do, who wants to learn how to make websites and their content more accessible for those with disabilities. In the world of web, the book has been used by front and backend developers, designers, product and project managers, team and business leaders.
