Alt Text Is Your Superpower

GOTO Community Day Chicago 2023

Alt text is one of the key components that will make your website more accessible to users with disabilities. But alt text is more than just describing what you see in an image. It needs to consider context, and make sure that screen reader users are supplied all the same information that is available to visual users.

Topics covered include:

Which images need alt text and which don’t How to tell a story with alt text Using captions to add to the story Text alternatives for charts, graphs, and infographics Audio descriptions for videos
