商品描述

Make designing and developing accessible websites fun and straightforward by deciphering information that is often confusing. This book examines how web professionals can ensure a website is accessible and meets the needs of its audience.
The main focus will be on web accessibility and WCAG 2.1 and 2.2 guidelines; what they are, who they are for, and what can be done from a design point of view to make the lives of the users easier. In reviewing the fundamentals, emphasis will be given on what disabilities could potentially prevent users from getting the information that makes the design and development process much easier. This will be achieved by breaking down web design and development practices, such as web accessibility, color contrast, typography, how to design specific components like carousels, forms, and so on.
Each chapter features examples written in a clear and concise manner. Each design element is divided into different components and that highlight exactly what helps with what. A11Y Unraveled reviews the current laws and legislations that govern web accessibility, and what needs to be designed and developed for the benefit of its people.
What You'll Learn

  • Study current web accessibility legislation, avoiding difficult to understand lingo
  • See how people perceive information on the web, and how that might create barriers in communication
  • Design an accessible website for specific disabilities through information and practical examples
  • Review different disabilities or limitations that prevent users from accessing web information and how to address them

Who This Book Is For
Main audience would be digital and web professionals (mainly designers but developers can benefit as well). It can also help business owners who want to ensure their websites are adhere to accessibility standards.

作者簡介

Dimitris is originally from Greece and has been living in the UK for about 8 years now. He started working as a graphic designer around 2004 doing mostly print work, had his own business along the way and he is now working as a senior designer on web and digital products. He considers himself a hobbyist designer, since he has not been formally educated in the subject (he holds a degree in Geography and now finishing a degree in Biology). However, Dimitri does love all things about design and has managed to make his hobby into a profession, so he considers that a win.

Dimitris likes to think that the fact he is interested in multiple subjects allows for a more spherical, multivariate-variate approach to solving (design) problems, and natural curiosity is one of the main reasons he decided to write this book. While working as a designer he always thought to himself "why do I do this", "does it matter", "how will this/that affect usage" so when he started learning about web accessibility, he naturally went in there 100% ready to make sense of it all. Combine that with the fact that he was appointed as the main accessibility contact in the company he works for, he had to educate himself on the subject. Now, Dimitris would like to share what he has learnt and make digital professionals see that it's actually pretty easy to make something accessible.

作者簡介(中文翻譯)

Dimitris原本來自希臘,現在已在英國居住了大約8年。他於2004年開始從事平面設計工作,主要從事印刷工作,期間也有自己的生意。現在他作為高級設計師從事網頁和數位產品的設計工作。儘管他沒有接受正式的設計教育(他擁有地理學學位,現在正在完成生物學學位),但他自稱是一個業餘設計師。然而,Dimitri熱愛設計的一切,並成功將其愛好變成了職業,因此他認為這是一個勝利。

Dimitris認為他對多個學科的興趣使他能夠以更全面、多變的方式解決(設計)問題,而天生的好奇心是他決定撰寫這本書的主要原因之一。在從事設計工作時,他總是在想:“為什麼我要這樣做?”,“這有意義嗎?”,“這/那會如何影響使用情況?”因此,當他開始學習網頁無障礙設計時,他自然而然地全力以赴去理解其中的道理。再加上他被任命為公司的主要無障礙設計聯絡人,他必須自學這個領域。現在,Dimitris希望分享他所學到的知識,並讓數位專業人士看到,製作無障礙設計實際上是相當容易的。
