AAArdvark: Bronze Sponsor

AAArdvark is our latest product that helps professionals conduct super-fast accessibility audits, and this year is a Bronze Sponsor.

Simply Schedule Appointments: Micro Sponsor

Simply Schedule Appointments (SSA) is equally excited to participate as a Micro Sponsor! SSA is a WordPress booking plugin built with accessibility at the forefront.

Natalie MacLees: Accessibility Challenges with Single Page Applications

And, don’t miss out on our co-founder, Natalie MacLees, participating and speaking for WordPress Accessibility Day. She’ll be covering the topic of, “Accessibility Challenges with Single Page Applications” on October 9th at 19:00 UTC or 1 PM PDT.

Using the WordPress API to drive a Single Page Application (SPA) can present major accessibility challenges, especially with dynamic content and focus management. However, with thoughtful planning, best practices, and proper testing, it’s possible to build SPAs that are accessible for all users.
