Best Practices
Build Diverse Teams
Homogeneous teams create narrow designs; teams with diverse experiences create more inclusive designs.
Design for Disabilities First
A design solution for the disabled often results in a feature that everyone can benefit from.
Give Control
It's critical that we provide users control so they can access and interact with content in way that they prefer. Don't disable platform features such as zoom, contrast and font size settings, and enable the ability to turn off things like parallax scrolling, animations, and infinite scrolling.
Inclusive design is a win-win for customers and businesses. It expands your product’s reach, sparks innovation, and helps your company take on a position of social responsibility.
