CAST 2022

Modern web applications demand more and more challenges when it comes to developing, testing and using them, and one of those big challenges is to have a web application with an inclusive design.

The funny thing is that inclusivity can be a big word to size and rather complicated to achieve or implement in a product, and in many cases from the different perspectives of the parties involved in building the product it can be seen as a stone in the shoe, more work, difficult to achieve or simply something that does not add value, in this practical talk we will talk about that, and how we should test and develop a website to ensure that it at least has some principles of inclusive design and development, yes you read that right, some of the principles because the reality is that in some cases even with the most inclusive development we cannot be entirely inclusive to all.

We will also try to put ourselves in the shoes of the other side of the coin through practical exercises, so that we can understand the importance of creating applications with an accessible heart.
