Coding Blindly: Intro to Web A11Y
summary
Workshop-style audit and demo that shows how accessibility actually gets done: live screen‑reader walkthroughs using VoiceOver and NVDA, coding and debugging in Eclipse with keyboard shortcuts, and concrete use of ARIA roles plus WCAG 2.0 checks. Organizers claim 39 million blind/visually impaired people in the region, run company audits and a curriculum, run a blind‑screen challenge with prizes, and demonstrate what breaks (and how to fix it) during live site tests.
