Crafting Great Accessible Experiences
The document discusses the importance of creating great accessible experiences in app development, emphasizing that accessibility is not merely a feature but an integral part of the design process. It outlines key principles such as knowing the users and what they need, integrating accessibility into every aspect of the app, and continually improving the experience. Ultimately, the document asserts that failing to prioritize accessibility results in shipping disabilities by creating unnecessary barriers for users.
