ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) allows developers to build accessibility into modern web applications. It defines ways to make web content and applications more accessible to users of assistive technologies like screen readers. ARIA works alongside HTML to specify roles, states, and properties that improve semantics. While ARIA enhances accessibility, it does not solve all issues and proper testing is still required. The WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices document provides best practices for implementing different interactive components.
Join us for a session on building incredible iPad apps with Flex. Too good to be true?
Actually the Flex SDK has a whole set of components and classes suited to easily build
iPad apps. I would even say it's the fastest and easiest way to build iPad apps out there.
Don't believe me? Then come and see how I unravel the hidden gems of the Flex SDK
and build 10 application in less than 60 minutes. You will learn how easy it is to build
powerful view navigation with little code. You will explore all the different components that
the Flex SDK provides you. Additionally you will learn in this code intense talk how to build
effective custom item renders. Wait, there is even more, we'll throw in tips and tricks how
to use Swiz to complement the SDKs built in mechanism to pass data among views, how
to integrate google maps and Mapquest, and how to communicate effectively with a
server using XML and JSON. You will acquire all the secret to build kick-ass applications
that can be deployed on Apple App Store.
Introduction to jQuery Mobile - Web Deliver for AllMarc Grabanski
Mobile web development frameworks are targeting the builtin web browsers on iPhone and Android only; however, jQuery mobile has in a different vision, one that will reach the largest distribution of phones possible. Leveraging the ways of progressive enhancement, your website can be viewed in raw HTML on old mobile phones and then enhanced with nice CSS styles across mobile platforms that have a decent CSS and JavaScript support. In this session, Grabanski gives you his list of reasons to use jQuery mobile, an overview of the framework and will draw from his experiences building websites on top of jQuery Mobile.

WAI-ARIA An introduction to Accessible Rich Internet Applications / AccessU 2018Patrick Lauke
Vanilla HTML is limiting and boring. Our clients demand highly engaging and interactive web experiences. And wouldn’t you know, with just a bit of HTML and JavaScript we can craft amazing custom controls, widgets and effects that go far beyond the confines of traditional static markup. But how can we ensure that these custom experiences are both understandable and usable for people with disabilities, and in particular those using assistive technologies such as screen readers?
In this talk, we will look at the basics of making some common custom-built components accessible - covering how browsers and assistive technologies interact, the limitations of HTML, and how ARIA can help make interactive experiences more accessible. In addition, we will explore some of the recent additions in ARIA 1.1, as well as some particular challenges when it comes to traditional ARIA patterns and assistive technologies on mobile/tablet/touch devices.

Open Web Camp 2014: On Fireproof, Future-Proof, Failure-Proof Things.Dylan Wilbanks
The moment we start creating a website, we’re setting ourselves up for failure later. Bad code creates middle of the night fire drills. Lack of thinking about accessibility gets our employer sued. Not thinking ahead on mobile generates rework.
We accept this as the normal course of business — but is there any way we could prevent (or lower) this cost? Is there anything we can learn from the building codes that dictate how our built environment is constructed?
A quick tour of how we got where we are with the web, and perhaps some valuable takeaway points.

Increasingly video content is becoming part of the enterprise web environment. The promise of HTML5's video element was supposed to solve a lot of the issues around serving videos to the web. But has it succeeded? And what of Accessibility?
This seminar will cover the state of video delivery on the web today, the issues, the promises, and, importantly, how to ensure that it all meets accessibility requirements.
What are the features in HTML5 that have the potential to:
make it easier for developers to provide a more accessible user experience?
make it harder for developers to provide a more accessible user experience?
Where does WAI-ARIA fit into the HTML5 accessibility story? How can WAI-ARIA fill the gaps in HTML5 UI accessibility?

Presentation on how usability and accessibility problems are related. Including people with disabilities in usability testing can reveal deeper insights into the kinds of problems users might encounter
Designing with Empathy [Reasons to be Creative 2013]Aaron Gustafson
Every decision we make affects the way real people experience our products.
We've all heard the rallying cry for user-centered design, but even those of us who ascribe to that ideal often fall back on our own biases and instincts when it comes to making decisions about how people experience our content and our services.
Sadly, this often means we make decisions we think will be good for our "users" - that anonymous, faceless crowd - rather than actually trying to understand the perspectives, surroundings, capabilities, and disadvantages of the actual people who we are here to serve.
In this session, Aaron will explore why empathy is a good thing, how empathy empowers creativity, and how we, as a community, can inject more empathy into our work.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
