Toegankelijkheid helpt wrijving voor iedereen te verminderen.

Veel problemen die ik tegenkom zijn klein: ontbrekende alt-tekst, laag contrast, onduidelijke focusvolgorde, nutteloze foutmeldingen.

Deze kleine momenten bepalen of iemand een taak voltooit of afbreekt. #a11y #ux #MKB #Toegankelijkheid

Accessibility helps reduce friction for everyone.

Many issues I find are small ones: missing alt text, low contrast, unclear focus order, unhelpful errors.

These tiny moments decide whether someone completes a task or quits. That’s where accessibility and UX meet. #accessibility #a11y #ux

Most accessibility issues aren’t hard to fix, they’re hard to notice.

Inclusive design starts with awareness. Color contrast, keyboard focus, alt text, labels,
small details that shape someone’s entire experience.

Good UX invites.

Accessibility and UX aren’t separate disciplines β€” they’re the same conversation.

Accessible design means:
- Clear structure and focus order
- Readable typography and color contrast
- Interfaces usable without a mouse
- Inclusive content and language

Can everyone use what you’ve built? If the answer isn’t clear, that’s where accessibility begins.

Accessibility is a skill and is not a phase.

Every designer and developer can (and should) learn it.
