I'm currently exploring open-source development, creating multiple projects which I hope one day will change the world. Join me in making our planet a better place through technology!
Ah no problem! I should really become more active on here tbh... I'm mostly on Reddit, but dev.to really does have some cool stuff on the front page that I should be checking out more often!
Great to hear that you'll be making some sort of leaderboard ─ I mean, I was mainly interested in this for the challenge, but making it somewhat competitive is brilliant 😂
Seriously though, this is a great way to raise awareness about a11y and keyboard navigation; it's a really creative way to do it! I've recently been implementing HTML <dialog>s in a project of mine, and keyboard navigation is certainly something to keep in mind when making it all work ─ from ensuring that navigation doesn't let the user 'escape' from the dialog when they've gone past the dialog's last button onto some random thing behind the dialog, to nice things to have, such as auto-focusing the dialog's first UI control and returning focus to the original button when a dialog is closed. I'm glad that some browsers implement most of this stuff for you ─ just waiting until the day that the polyfills for Safari and co. are redundant!
Accessibility First DevRel. I focus on ensuring content created, events held and company assets are as accessible as possible, for as many people as possible.
Sadly I think we will be a long time until we are polyfill free 😪, I mean we still support IE9 here due to the number of people using screen readers who still want / have to use IE (when I say support - I mean it works and it looks ok, it isn't pixel perfect!).
A little competition goes a long way in my book, but maybe that is because I have quite a "combative" personality and I like when people challenge me (I am also quite a narcissist so I also like to win....God I am a horrible person 🤣🤣)
I really should also be more active on Reddit to mirror your thoughts, I hardly go on there except for the memes (and I am getting old now so I don't understand half of them anymore 😋!)

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
