Speaker: Bram Duvigneau

Bram is a freelance software developer and accessibility consultant from Arnhem, the Netherlands. While not coding, tinkering with technology or doing other geeky stuff, he likes to walk with his dog.

Blind from birth, Bram is in the perfect position to explain accessibility related issues in a way that make sense to developers. He’ll be presenting on the topic “Practical WordPress Accessibility.”

In this presentation I would like to give an overview of the current state of WordPress accessibility and why building accessible software is important.

Through some examples I will show how certain accessibility techniques influence how assistive technology is reading a web page.

I’ll give some tips and pointers to theme and plugin developers and finish with a Q&A session.
