For the new year, I thought it would be a good time to list some solid (and free) introductory Web Accessibility Resources.
- W3C WAI Accessibility Fundamentals
- W3C WAI Tutorials
- Introduction to Web Accessibility by WebAIM (now in 10 languages!)
- Accessibility on MDN
- Accessibility fundamentals course by Microsoft
- Web Accessibility for Newbies by Karina Chow (2021)
- Web Axe Podcast #74: Awards, Events & Back to Basics – podcast by me
- Introduction To Web Accessibility – Slideshare presentation by Steven Swafford
- Accessible building blocks for web – YouTube channel from Tetralogical
