2.1: Getting Steve Faulkner wound up about accessibility

Steve Faulkner is really into accessibility.

”That’s all I’ve been doing for the last 20 years.”

Steve has been an accessibility engineer since 2001, first with Vision Australia and currently with The Paciello Group. He has a hand in developing HTML5 and WAI-ARIA specifications as a member of W3C working groups, and is the editor of W3C specifications on HTML5, Using ARIA in HTML, accessibility APIs, and text alternatives.

Or, for short – he’s been part of building the very foundation of what we call accessibility on internet today. So, what are the most common mistakes a11y noobs do when starting to care about accessibility? What was all the conflicts surrounding HTML5 all about? And why does Steve get so wound up when talking about the document outline algorithm?

Those things, among lots of other fascinating things, is discussed in this episode!
