What is BADCamp?

The Bay Area Drupal Camp is a gathering of like-minded people to discuss and learn about Drupal, an open-source content management system that is powering more of the web every year. In its 8th year, BADCamp provides four days of training, summits, sprints, sessions, BOFs, networking, career opportunities and more!

Bridging the Web Accessibility Gap - Drupal 8 and Section 508 Refresh

Mike Gifford will be presenting at BADCamp on November 8 at 1.30pm.
Web accessibility has been important for non-profits, educational institutions & government agencies for ages in the USA thanks to Section 508, but it is becoming increasingly important for competitive businesses as well. Drupal 7's accessibility is still outstanding, but Drupal 8 Core is even better! Learn about some of the big improvements in Core that you'll want to be leveraging in your Drupal 8 themes & modules. Get a better understanding of WAI-ARIA and how this W3C Standard can help you remove barriers for screen-reader users. The Drupal community is striving to make our code (and sites) accessible by default. Learning what of that behavior you can leverage can save you a lot of site development time.
