I had the pleasure of editing Carie Fisher, the author of web.dev’s latest course, Learn Accessibility. Learn Accessibility gives web developers the essentials for building accessible websites and web apps.

To promote this new content, I interviewed folks who work to build an accessible web.

• Melanie Sumner told me about her journey from spy to engineer, accessible design, Ember.js, and the importance of funding these efforts.
• Olutimilehin Olushuyi told me about his move from the law to web development, building accessible community, and creating accessible layouts.
• Albert Kim talked with me about mental health, building for neurodivergent people, the COGA Accessibility Community Group, and more practical wisdom.
• Elisa Bandy told me about her work for Google’s internal teams, developing accessibility best practices for the web. Her blog post has yet to be published, but look for it in mid-December.

It’s an honor to work on Google Chrome’s developer relations team. I have the opportunity to speak with experts and offer a platform with a huge audience.

We highlighted additional resources as a part of ChromiumDev’s Accessibility Week.
