After a viral comment on LinkedIn, the sudden attention motivated me to rewrite the blog post and clean up the dead links on this piece about accessibility. More specifically color (contrast).
A kind reminder to designers that proper research is important.

Traveling with #Luxair is always the same nightmare:
- no communication
- worth, contradictory info
- delays (today, 2h and counting)
In addition this time, I went from gate E6 to A27, in Copenhagen airport, because they changed gates last minute.
At least I got some good shots while waiting.

I wanted to use a modern banking service for my newly created company. (Yay 🥳 btw)
Tried with Revolut Business, went through steps to justify my own existence and all (all justified and fair to be honest), 15 min after my file was refused. Definitive decision. Support is mute and useless.

I'm building a SaaS, and surprisingly, coding isn't what's draining my energy. It's legal, VAT, accounting, payment processing, and data compliance.
Building for Europe is great, but navigating 27 slightly different sets of rules is... an experience. 😅

Accessibility isn't an extra step you bolt on at the end.
Design for people with disabilities, and you usually end up with something that works better for everyone. Less friction, easier to use, period.
That's the whole point of UX. 🌍

I've implemented the ARIA Patterns directly as references into the skills to avoid a token-consuming browser search.
Accessibility experts, front-end devs, and anyone working with RGAA / RAWeb, I need your help.
I’ve built some skills (for Claude Code):
• Code skill → helps implement accessibility
• Audit skill → quick scan of major issues in existing code
They’re based on RAWeb & RAAM, compatible with RGAA.

OMG I love this kind of article with CSS tricks combination.
✨ I just published a new blog post about a nifty lil’ animation technique: sprites!
Sprites are used all the time in video games, but they’re less common on the web. We do have the tools to manage it in CSS, but there’s a gotcha.
In this post, I share some of the cool use cases I’ve found:

In game development, it’s common to use spritesheets for animation, but this technique isn’t as widely used on the web. Which is a shame, because we can do some pretty cool stuff with sprites! In this...

German auditors have rejected #accessibility overlays for EAA compliance, sparking a crucial discussion on effective solutions. Chris Yoong’s article sheds light on this important topic. Let’s prioritize genuine accessibility!
