"When Accessibility Isn't Easy: Website Features That Need Extra Love" with Suzanne Dergacheva, Co-founder at Evolving Web. Not all parts of a website are equally straightforward when it comes to accessibility. Some features — especially custom interactions like maps, filters, calendars, and sliders — pose significant challenges that can slow down a project if they're not identified early. In this session, we'll explore real-world examples of features and design patterns that often require additional attention to meet accessibility standards.
