QED42’s Post

I submitted a talk about UX patterns and needs that lead me to turn off Drupal. It's not an anti-Drupal talk, it's an anti-end-user-complexity-and-training-requirements, talk.

The future of the web is inclusive. Are you ready? Accessibility is just the beginning. To create truly inclusive digital experiences, businesses must go beyond compliance and focus on user needs.  Drupal, with its flexibility, allows businesses to tailor websites to diverse users, including those with cognitive, sensory, and motor impairments. To demonstrate the value of inclusive design, businesses need to measure its impact.    By tracking key metrics like conversion rates, time on site, and user satisfaction, organizations can quantify the benefits of accessibility. Drupal's data-driven approach can help businesses gather insights and make data-informed decisions.  Because inclusive design isn't just about compliance, but also about creating exceptional user experiences for everyone. #OpenSenseLabs #OSL #Drupal #Accessibility #Inclusivity #DigitalInclusion #WebAccessibility #WebDesign #UserExperience
