Question for my #a11y friends: is the <dialog> element ready for use if I want to create a modal? It seems to work with keyboard navigation and VoiceOver, but I don't have access to NVDA/Jaws right now, so can't test. Please retweet.

What's the one attribute/element/trick that most people don't know about HTML? All answers are welcome...

I've just installed ShellFishApp for MacOS and absolutely love it. Worth every penny (that I had already paid for the iOS app). Go Get!

My reason: CodePen is a "drafts" folder for me. A place where I can instantly try something out without having to deal with NPM packages, Browsersync, git etc. — it's development without the tooling chain. chriscoyier/1584952138572386304

Hey #a11y tweeps — I haven't been keeping an eye on <dialog> progress, but can see that it's supported by all modern browsers now. Is it actually accessible as well, or should we keep using polyfills/libraries?

Just to be clear: I was not referring to myself here. Sure, I'll add my opinion on stuff, but I was talking about the "originators" who helped push web standards back in the days and continue to do so today — people like zeldman, meyerweb, adactio etc. overflowhidden/1583065464242339840

I'm playing around with speechSynthesis and can't get it to work in Safari (MacOS) — anyone able to see what I'm doing wrong here: codepen.io/kimblim/pen/yLjJWPw (Works fine in Firefox and Edge.) #SpeechSynthesis #JS

Answers to this one are great, but I'll add one more: craftsmanship. Valid HTML is proof that you care about your craft and that you know how to achieve results within a set of defined constraints. It's a challenge I still love after more than 20 years of doing it. overflowhidden/1564251073170358275

Hey keyboard-users: how does one select multiple options in a <select> element that allows more than one selection? I can use shift to select a range, but what if I want to pick two options that are not next to each other? Please RT :) #a11y #Keyboard

Scrolling in TweetDeck is a terrible experience — it just jumps back to the top every now and then. Also the "load more tweets" is an incredibly annoying feature. Just show me the f'in tweets in chronological order please. It shouldn't be this hard.

This from gmail is just pathetic. 1) Don't tell people to switch browsers. 2) When you ignore no.1, please make sure that the button actually works, so that I can dismiss the notification.

Hey Indiegogo, you forgot to add the actual link to "email settings" here — meaning it's not possible to unsubscribe directly from the email. I'm sure it was a mistake and not some scheme to prevent people from unsubscribing...

I seriously thought something had gone wrong with the CSS and font loading, when I just opened gmail — that new design does not seem like an improvement. #Gmail

Right, thinking about using CSS-in-JS (Emotion) for a Design System. It certainly has benefits, and I can live with the xtra kB being loaded for the system. My main concern is the JS-work the browser has to do once the files reach the client. Thoughts and input?

People are celebrating that IE11 went away yesterday. Spoiler: IE11 is still on users' machines. If you had active users on IE11 two days ago, you probably still do, so you will need to support it for a little while longer. Users determine support level, not corporations.

Currently working on a big AngularJS project and getting really annoyed with it's custom attributes all over my HTML. Can someone tell me how to make it use data- attributes for everything Angular injects? #AngularJS

Question for all the #a11y people out there: Do you think valid HTML is required in order for a site/application to be accessible. And please tell me why.

I’m sure there are a lot of designers and developers who are really happy that <selectmenu> is coming soon. Has any one asked users whether they care? css-tricks.com/the-selectmenu-element/

Working on an Angular project for the first time, and decided to try and code a button component just to get the hang of it. It’s unbelievable how much better React is with documentation and examples.

Sorry, but I have to share some frustration with you guys today — after all, that’s what Twitter is for ;) I’m currently working on a big project (€40m budget) doing accessibility work. The management just wants me to do “enough”, so that we don’t get caught by the external ..

Whenever I want to start building some HTML/CSS for some idea I have, I always start in CodePen — it’s just so much easier than setting up a project in my editor. I compare it to an artist sketching on a notepad before moving into Illustrator (or their tool of choice).

As much as I love learning, virtual conferences just don’t seem to work for me. I drift off within 5-10 minutes, and all of sudden I’ve spent a few hours doing something else on the computer, while the conference is running in the background. Anyone else feel this way?
