Hi, there. You're not logged in. So, you must be a visitor. Welcome!

What is this? You are viewing one of our supplemental "Stories." In addition to our core design curriculum, we are constantly building out additional resources. Stories are a collection of real work tasks, design history, UX explorations, and work-throughs. Stories are often off-the-cuff and less concerned with production value.

New landmarks put into place with JS

These might be verbose? We’ll have to ask a real user — but given that we don’t have control over the markup – this is probably a win.

Example of how we'll use the red dot and the image alt text examples

One of the big wins of having an exhaustive list of alt, title, desc – and other helpful tools for screen readers — is that we can test them all – and document them in one place. Then – we can know which options work best- and which to choose for which situation. Here are the first 5 or so tested with VoiceOver.

VoiceOver tests round 1: May 2nd 2022

Here are the first tests of the interactive dog color mode switcher. And while I was there, I went through the rest of the page to see how it sounded.
