Super impressed with the great work you've been doing here!

One aspect of web development that is often overlooked, yet incredibly important, is accessibility. Accessibility is all about making the web, well, accessible for every kind of user; so also users who are not able to use a mouse, but only keyboard for example. Or people who can't see well, or people with color blindness, elderly people, etc etc.

Having a good grasp of accessibility can really make you stand out as a web developer, but most importantly, we should build the web with every kind of user in mind.

You can find some great resources for starting with accessibility here:

www.frontendmasters.com also has two good courses on accessibility, but its a subscription based service (but definitely worth the money though imo)

I've taken the udacity course myself, and for me it was eye opening.

Feel free to reach out if you need any help or guidance or would like some more information, I'm more than happy to help 🙂

Thanks, good point! I have not given it that much attention yet, but it is definitely something I need to explore. The Audacity course seems pretty interesting, I will look into it and read through the others link as well in the coming days! If you have more links for interesting courses and/or articles I'm all ears!
