Session
Accessibility, Design Systems, and You!
Crafting a high quality website at scale is incredibly difficult if you don't set up a shared design system to reuse CSS and components. This talk will showcase how to set up both designers and developers with a "pit of success" for making sure page experiences are accessible and consistent.
That will include both technical strategies -aXe and ESLint validations, type-safe CSS values with TypeScript, Storybook- and procedural -desk checks, user feedback, knowledge sharing-. Each of these strategies will help your organization reduce deuplicate code efforts and increase end-user product quality.
