EP.8: Accessibility, Why should you care?

In this episode, I am joined by Segun Ola popularly known on Twitter as the "Inspector General of a11y police" and we are talking about Accessibility i.e making your websites, web applications usable by as many people as possible! Segun is a Medical Doctor, Technical Team Lead at Andela and Co-organiser Front-end Weekly at DevC Lagos, Nigeria. He is extremely passionate about making the web accessible and does not miss an opportunity to educate other Frontend Engineers (most especially) on the importance of Accessibility and how to build applications with Accessibility in mind. In this episode, we go deep down into everything Web Accessibility. He tells us why we should care, the bedrock of an accessible site and also the things you stand to lose if you disregard Accessibility when building applications. If you want to learn more about Accessibility and Why you should care? Then, you should listen to this episode.
