Nice! Accessibility is such a minefield when you get into the nitty gritty. Seems pretty hard to pick up (correctly) without having an existing expert to share. You got any recommendations for courses/fundamentals/improving? Maybe I just need to find an accessibility starter pack? 😅

I recommend starting with @amberley.dev’s wonderful starter guide:

Someone else recommended @sarasoueidan.com’s course. I’ve gone through some of it myself and can confirm it’s great. 💯
Empathy was key. Once I learned and tried keyboard and screenreader controls on noncompliant sites, I experienced the pains firsthand. Once you're aware of the issues, its the classic dev bug fixing process
Also check out https://www.a11yproject.com/ (by @ericwbailey.website amongst others) and https://adrianroselli.com/ if you're looking for free blogs to follow/read 😉
I'm also excited that you're curious to learn more! It can be intimidating, but a hopefully helpful thought is that every little change compounds to make things better.
