Book DescriptionDespite our growing reliance on digital technology, millions of users are still excluded from fully engaging with websites, apps, and digital services because nobody thought to design for them. Inclusive Design for Accessibility challenges you to rethink how you build digital experiences, offering the tools and guidance needed to move beyond compliance and create experiences that work for everyone.
With contributions from twelve accessibility leaders—Dale Cruse, Denis Boudreau, Dr. Angela Young, Maya Sellon, Julianna Rowsell, Nandita Gupta, Jennifer Chadwick, Crystal Scott, Chris McMeeking, Dr. Keith Newton, Charlie Triplett, and Kai Wong—this book lays out the fundamentals of inclusive design and its application in advanced and emerging technologies. You'll discover practical strategies and real-world examples that show you how to embed accessibility into projects, from user research and testing to creating accessible websites and mobile apps. You’ll also focus on how AI can enhance accessibility and learn to tackle the challenges posed by VR and AR.

Dale Cruse is a highly sensitive empath driven by a lifelong commitment to equal opportunity, inspired by his parents with disabilities. He created accessibility programs at Twitch and McGraw-Hill Education and led inclusive design initiatives at Microsoft and Deque, where he also helped launch the industry-standard axe DevTools accessibility testing plugin. Dale shared his expertise in the book Accessibility for Everyone, and The Web Ahead podcast, and is the author of HTML5 Multimedia Development Cookbook for Packt Publishing. Denis Boudreau is an international expert in digital accessibility and inclusive leadership with 25 years of experience in the field, working with leaders and executives who are no longer willing to overlook disability inclusion and want to transform their leadership approach from "inclusive-ish" to truly inclusive. He specializes in supporting organizations wishing to adopt more inclusive leadership and communication practices, particularly for their workforce and clients who live with disabilities, are aging, or are marginalized by technology. Offering thought leaders and communicators the means to extend the reach of their message to a much broader audience, he is also the author of the Amazon bestseller The Inclusive Speaker, published in 2023.
