Build Accessible UI with React! - Tae'lur Alexis

If you browse web applications today, you'll often find issues that are found in modern web applications and lack of empathy for disabled users. You may be unaware or uncertain on how to go about implementing accessibility into your code. In my presentation, I'll provide solutions to those issues that can quickly be implemented and show a simple and efficient example of making your React application more accessible! I'm a self taught developer passionate about making web development more access and a staunch advocate of open education. I live at the intersection of technology, creativity and impact. When I'm not coding, I'm working on building the platform, codeeveryday.io, which allows users to communicate with a chatbot that will configure a learning plan made specifically for them based on their needs and scheduling commitments. I strive to be a role model and to live by the principles I preach everyday.
