Justin Yarbrough @yarbrough.info · 24/09/2026So great to stay at a hotel, do valet parking, then get a letter in the mail threatening to sue us because we didn't pay to park in the garage they parked our car in. Even better, this is the second letter and the hotel didn't actually fix it the first time we called about it. 021

Reposted by Justin YarbroughAnna E. Cook @annaecook.com · 08/09/2026So many times when someone asks if an interaction they’ve made is accessible, the fixes I provide them change their designs more than their code. You can slap a whole lotta aria on stuff to force fit a design but better to just fix the design so it works better for everyone. 13110

Reposted by Justin YarbroughStef Walter @stephaniewalter.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Since accessibility issues start in the design phase, catching them early is cheaper than fixing them in code. I'm running a free 1 hour accessibility webinar this Tuesday Sept 1, 2026 · 19:00. It covers how to check your mockups, documentation examples and you will get plenty of resources to help.smashingconf.comSpotting Accessibility Issues Early — Online WorkshopsAccessibility is not only a developer problem, it's team work! And many issues can already be spotted, prevented, and documented during the design phase.
