Today is #idpwd. Don't celebrate for us. Just vax us, put us on screens, employ us, give us equal health outcomes, fix our NDIS, educate us in regular schools, and stop imprisoning us. Once this list ticked we'll celebrate with you. Get on it Champs.

- co-creating
- listening
- designing
Together.

Tomorrow I’m opening my first grocery store in a Title One school. I doubt I sleep tonight - imagine a parent between checks who can order dinner and breakfast for their family thru our app and their child bring it home. I’m changing lives man, no one does it like me. Just wait!
Sometimes the screen design may not allow a visible label, for times like this the aria-label attribute can be used instead to provide a programmatic label for input controls. https://t.co/3KtCPXq17P #a11y
