Accessibility with Amy Lee

Welcome back to the Buffer Overflow show! We're excited to bring you a brand new season of topics, guests and chats about remote work, software engineering and more. For this season, we'll be bringing on more guests to talk about interesting work they've been doing, and we'll hold a three question format for each of them. 

To get started, we're delighted to have Amy Lee Bennett on to chat all about accessibility! Amy Lee works on the front end team at Buffer, where she does excellent work on our flagship product, Publish. Along the way, she's brought up a lot of interesting points about accessibility on the web, how to think about it as a team and she's talked a lot about tools to help developers provide a great accessibility experience.

So join Jordan and Joe as we discuss accessibility at length with Amy Lee for our first guest episode!
