One thing I keep meaning to come back to with my projects and training is accessibility in web apps. Partly cause it's the right thing to do, and partly cause my essential tremor may one day progress where I can't use a mouse.
Anyone out in the fediverse know of some good resources for learning how to do accessibility? Eg. Design patterns, testing strategies, etc.
I figure a good start is keyboard centric selenium tests. But says it's "functional", not that it's "good".

I know it's not very automated, but I found using an addon like pentadactyl or vrome really helps with this.
When you're trying to navigate keyboard-first yourself, and not touch the mouse, you're a little closer to seeing the web how an accessibility tool does.
Plus, those vimlike tools can eventually make browsing more enjoyable ;)
