Navigation is the main component of a website when it comes to moving around different pages and finding content. For this reason, it is critical to design and develop an accessible navigation. This means keeping in mind those using different devices and assistive technologies such as screen readers.
An accessible navigation is easy to understand, semantic, and adaptive. In this session, Steve will go over the best practices to design and develop an accessible navigation from start to finish. He’ll also discuss how to replace the navigation in an existing theme.
These meetups take place via Zoom and are live captioned. You must register to attend on Zoom.
