The European Accessibility Act (EAA) is now the new normal, but the real work for web developers is often just beginning. As we move into 2026, organizations across Europe are trying to find a way to build new features that are complying, and stay compliant to the WCAG guidelines.

In this session, we’ll go beyond the basics of EAA compliance to explore what it means to involve accessibility into every stage of the development lifecycle. We’ll cover advanced accessibility techniques, tools, and automation practices that help you integrate accessibility into CI/CD pipelines.

Through live demonstrations, you’ll see how to apply WCAG 2.1 standards using modern frameworks, test accessibility with tools like axe-core and Playwright, and fix common accessibility pitfalls developers still face.

By the end, you’ll know how to build, test, and maintain accessible web applications that stay compliant and user-friendly.
