The Gaady Awards are like the Emmy Awards for the field of digital accessibility. And, just like the Emmys, the Gaadys are a reason to celebrate! On November 21, GitHub was honored to roll out the red carpet for the accessibility community at our San Francisco headquarters.
GitHub celebrates Global Accessibility Awareness Day by launching another installment of the Coding Accessibility series and sharing how we scale accessibility within GitHub and beyond.
We’ve made improvements to the way users of assistive technology can interact with and navigate lists of issues and pull requests and tables across GitHub.com.
A11y Design Bootcamp is a live educational program that consists of exercises, discussions, and knowledge shares to raise awareness of web accessibility best practices, the role designers play in creating accessible products, and how to advocate for accessibility with cross-functional partners.
As part of GitHub’s dedication to accessibility, we expanded our internal accessibility program and scaled up our assessment process to help remove or lower barriers for users with disabilities. Then, we empowered employees from various disciplines to drive accessibility efforts within their teams.
GitHub is the home for all developers and on this Global Accessibility Awareness Day we are thrilled to celebrate the achievements of disabled developers and recent ships that help them build on GitHub.
Build what’s next on GitHub, the place for anyone from anywhere to build anything.
