Join Shell Little, AVP - Inclusive Design Lead, Wells Fargo DS4B for July's edition of A11yTalks: The Fatal Flaw of Overlays

Overlays are technologies implemented on websites with the aim of increasing accessibility. Even if these Overlays could do as they claim, they would still have a fundamental flaw. You can never out code bad design. During this talk let's discuss how Overlays will never be the answer and the importance of accessible, inclusive, and usable designs.

A11yTalks seeks to provide a friendly, safe environment. All participants should be able to engage in productive dialogue. They should share and learn with each other in an atmosphere of mutual respect. We require all participants to adhere to the Drupal Code of Conduct. This applies to all community interactions and events.
