Designing for Everyone: Building Accessible and Inclusive Interfaces - Michael Okolo
This session is a practical, beginner-focused introduction to designing accessible and inclusive user interfaces. Many developers want to create interfaces that everyone can use, but often feel unsure about where to start, what accessibility involves, or how to apply it in real projects. This workshop breaks accessibility down into simple concepts and clear, actionable steps that any developer can follow, regardless of their experience level or design background.
