In today's digital world, Accessibility is more important than ever. However, Accessibility is often treated as an afterthought in the development process, which can lead to exclusion and frustration for users with disabilities. This talk aims to change that by discussing how to make Accessibility a core part of your development workflow. We will cover topics such as collaboration within your team, available tools and when it makes sense to use them, and modifications to your project to ensure adding Accessibility is a pain-free experience for feature development and testing. By implementing these strategies, you can create a more inclusive product and provide a better user experience for all.
