It's important to be aware that accessibility is so much more than just screen readers. Surveys have shown that screen magnifiers are the most used assistive technologies.

"The fact you can be a *web designer* and produce a production-ready app is pretty cool."
Now for a history lesson… this may not have always been the case!

Our 1st speaker Charles Boisvert has a real 'glass half full' attitude towards learning to programme - as evidenced by his X-axis reading "ease of use", rather than "difficulty"! #FrontEndSheff

Is HTML easy? Maybe, but mastering HTML is difficult.
Thanks for a great talk Andy!
And now for some lively debate - should we bring back XHTML compliant badges? Why don't people care about valid HTML?

A lot of HTML errors are caused by incorrectly nested elements. "It's completely valid to put the puppy inside the box, but it's not valid to put the box inside the puppy" -

Well written HTML matters for accessibility, user experience, SEO and robustness. But the semantics can be confusing and a lot of sites still don't use sectioning elements like 'main' and 'header' or even h1, which causes accessibility issues.
