veo que la gente de Sirviendo CΓ³digo acaba de publicar los vΓdeos de la a11yConf, la conferencia de accesibilidad que se celebrΓ³ en noviembre en Girona... destaco aquΓ abajo mis tres charlas favoritas
(dirΓa que aΓΊn no han hecho la playlist con todos los vΓdeos, actualizo cuando la tengan)
The latest Working Draft of WCAG 3 is out today! w3.org/TR/wcag3/
In this version, we've:
- moved lots of requirements to βDevelopingβ phase,
- wrote down how to test,
- mapped reqs to user needs (using DAF),
- split out 'applies when' and 'except when' to massively increase readability

Quick note to remind everyone that tomorrow is the first day of axe-con 2026, a free accessibility conf organized by @deque.com. A fantastic opportunity to dive into topics of #accessibility and #InclusiveDesign. Do you want to learn more?, join at www.deque.com/axe-con/ #axecon #a11y #a11d
Saying #accessibility is an "enhancement" for web or mobile content is like saying flour enhances a cake. Accessibility is essential, a key ingredient that ensures web and mobile content is usable for everyone. #a11y #a11d
It would definitely #accessibility :) And of course, I would love to share some knowledge about it as a speaker (wink wink) ;)
Let's give some love to something that important as Accessibility, we don't give it the importance that it deserves!
We'll be getting multiple outlines in #CSS!!
Multiple outlines means no more hacking our way around accessible and creative outline styles with box-shadows that aren't rendered in forced-colors mode! π
Finally!! This is such great news!! ππ₯³
Into web development,Β too?
Iβve just released updates (and new covers) for nearly all of myΒ booksΒ π

Awesome!!! Thanks @laurakalbag.bsky.social ;)
My book, Accessibility For Everyone, is now free and online as a website.
accessibilityforeveryone.site
The book was first published by A Book Apart in 2017 but it holds up! It covers web accessibility for designers, developers, content folks, and really everyone who works in tech.
Today I saw a piece of code that reminded me that design systems should be "accessibility ready" (they are not accessible per se). It's crucial to include accessibility from the start. It ensures everyone can enjoy seamless experiences. #accessibility #a11y #a11d
ΒΏQuerΓ©is saber cΓ³mo testear la accesibilidad de vuestras webs?
Este vΓdeo de la @commitconf es un buen ejemplo
At the point in my accessibility career where I think Iβd be net more effective at advocacy by breaking peopleβs hands than asking them to please, please, please use heading elements.

Hidde de Vries speaking on ARIA, the Good Parts at Pixel Pioneers Bristol 2025
Sometimes, the right use of ARIA can improve your UI for end users.
π₯ Watch @hidde.blog's excellent talk on both the good parts and common pitfalls of ARIA, delivered at Pixel Pioneers Bristol 2025: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuTh...

If a UI element is interactive, exposed to AT, needs event listeners, needs role/aria customisation, and needs programmatic focus. It should be in HTML. It's frustrating this is a conversation that even needs to be had.
A park in Vienna full of snow. I am walking towards the end of the park. A sentence saying β13 years in Viennaβ
A view of the skyline of Vienna. I am standing looking at the view. A sentence saying β13 years in Viennaβ
Today itβs my 13th anniversary since I moved to Vienna (Austria)β¦damn, time flies!!!
This was pushed out with a rushed security review, a coerced and unwilling engineering team, and in full opposition to our supposed company values.
If you don't want it, tell them. Social media and support forums. Leadership won't listen to employees. github.blog/changelog/20...
What an amazing article about how convenience is killing curiosity by @joanwestenberg.com. Great read!
"[...] adult curiosity is not a default state. It must be cultivated. And right now, the culture of convenience is starving it."
