For frontend developers the main goal these days is to make sure websites can easily be viewed on a mobile device. If the page layout is not responsive it becomes inaccessible (or at least difficult to access) on a phone or tablet.
But there are other (and often much more serious) accessibility considerations to be taken into account : making sure that web content is also accessible to people with disabilities.
Boyle Software takes web accessibility seriously. There are close to 60 million people with disabilities in America alone – people who may need assistive technologies such as screen readers in order to navigate the internet. But the internet is full of hurdles that makes it difficult for people to use such assistive technology. It is our job as developers to remove as many of these hurdles as possible.
