Designing for accessibility beyond compliance
<p>During my time volunteering at <a href="https://www.neilsquire.ca/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Neil Squire Society</a>, and helping Hunter, a client with disabilities, be more comfortable using a computer, I learned a lot about how to better design from <a href="https://medium.com/@christiewong/designing-for-accessibility-part-1-3-key-perspectives-9755aac55459" rel="noopener">three key perspectives: cognitive, physical and visual</a>.</p>
<p>But those takeaways weren’t what stood out to me the most.</p>
<p>The most important lesson that I learned from Hunter wasn’t a set of guidelines on how to design accessible solutions; it wasn’t just about following a checklist of compliance standards.</p>
<p>The biggest impact from my sessions with Hunter was being challenged on my own definition of what makes a good user experience.</p>
