Key takeaways from tonight's #FrontEndSheff:
✅ use semantic html (no more divs all the way down!)

It's important to be aware that accessibility is so much more than just screen readers. Surveys have shown that screen magnifiers are the most used assistive technologies.

@andycarter.dev uses browser zoom, screen magnification and browser reader mode to help him use the web.
