Book excerpt: 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 as accessible as it can be, meeting the needs of its audience. The main focus is 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 they need and what can be done to help them. This is achieved by breaking down web design and development terms and practices, such as web accessibility, color contrast, typography, how to design specific components like carousels, forms, and so on. Each chapter features design examples presented in a clear and concise manner. Each design element is divided into different components, highlighting exactly what helps with what, showing how a website needs to be designed for the benefit of its people. A11Y Unraveled also reviews the current laws and legislations that govern web accessibility in different parts of the world. What You'll Learn Discover how people perceive information on the web, and how that might create barriers in communication. Review different disabilities or limitations that prevent users from accessing web information and how to address them. Design an accessible website for specific disabilities through practical examples. Understand how different web design components affect the user. Study current web accessibility legislation, avoiding difficult to understand lingo. 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.

Book Unraveled

    Book Details:
  • Author : Emily Regan
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2011-10
  • ISBN : 9780615548463
  • Pages : 146 pages

Download or read book Unraveled written by Emily Regan and published by . This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection, Unraveled, Emily Regan has spanned the generations, from the very young to the very old, to present characters in the midst of loss. Again and again, her characters' tethers are coming loose, and even breaking, sending some adrift, while others try to find their grasp once more. The losses in some of these stories are devastating because they mostly deal with a loved one's leaving, either intentionally or unintentionally. In our time, to lose something is nothing new: a job, a foreclosed house, or a repossessed car. But Regan delves into how the psyche responds to the real emotional extremes of loss. The death of a loved one is life changing. But when a character simply leaves out of selfishness or self-preservation, abandoning a child out in the yard on a swing set, the ramification can be life destroying.Some of these stories I've read in earlier incarnations and some are new to me, as they will be to the fortunate readers of this collection. "Squirrels" shows a widow becoming undone, heralding the end of her freedom of living alone. Her longing for her dead husband has driven her to attack, in funny and crazed ways, an unseen army of squirrels. She is convinced the squirrels want her out of her house. But her real evictor, her daughter, is more difficult to conquer. In "Visiting Day" we witness a vital elderly woman, who is strong and confident at the start, lose her way. All because the old sometimes have a way of reverting to acting like school children, and the simple action of sitting down at a table can have debilitating consequences. "Mirror, Mirror" is a nice reboot of a fairy tale, but there is no happily ever after for Mariella. The flash fiction, "Five", is one of my favorites in this collection. Regan is pitch-perfect in showing, through actions and dialogue, this emotional moment. A young child's birthday is set aside because of a down deep hurt. And more escapes ensue.In the longest piece in this collection, "Loose Threads", Anne navigates through the coming apart of her family after the death of her brother. Addictions sever the many ties between characters throughout this novella: from drugs, to abusive relationships, to victimization. In the end, though, there comes finally a kind of redemption by way of a baby's birth. Anne is reconnecting with a tether that may bring her back to where she deserves to be.This is Emily Regan's first book. And I'm certain it will not be her last. She has done something here that calls for attention. She has opened familiar wounds that we need to consider, but will not be able to readily heal. And, as many of us may admit, sometimes running away from what hurts us seems the easiest way out. Although, I must acknowledge that Regan, once a student of mine, is now instructing me with her wonderful writing and vivid characters that easiest may work for a moment, but the many moments, days, weeks, and years that follow tend to have a way of making life more and more difficult. Good writing, in my opinion, should present this outcome, and Emily Regan is a very good writer.-- Dan Crawley (from the Preface)
