Twitter influencers would have you believe that if you just use the semantic html tag for elements instead of a div, your components will be accessible. but there's a lot more that goes into it! Let's zoom in on one component from GitHub (one that you've probably used before!) and look at all the accessibility considerations involved and interesting challenges in implementing them.

In this talk, Siddharth shares the challenges his team faced with optimising runtime css in js (styled-components) for performance. At GitHub, there are about 4000 React components that contain styles, Siddharth dives into the reasons for rethinking styling architecture, the challenges faced and lessons learned by migrating a big application.

When working on component library for a specific company, you want to make it easy as possible for developers to follow the recommended path quickly. Sometimes, that’s not easy. But, when there’s a way, there’s a will! Come see some hacks I have added to our codebase to enable a good API

Design systems aim to bring consistency to a brand's design and make the UI development productive. Component libraries with well thought API can make this a breeze. But, sometimes an API choice can accidentally overstep and slow the team down! There's a balance there... somewhere. Let's explore some of the problems and possible creative solutions.

When users directly manipulate onscreen objects instead of using separate controls to manipulate them, they’re more engaged and more readily understand the results of their actions. Subtle animations can give people meaningful feedback to help clarify the result of their actions. But, the devil is in the details. What often seems simple can be complex to get right, especially when you care about accessibility.
