Starting from tomorrow, a new WordCamp Europe will take place in 🏛 Athens 🇬🇷 .
If you are there and curious about the factors that make a website legible and readable, starting from accessible text, consider joining Giulia Laco 's session on Friday 9th (4pm).
💻 🤳 WORKSHOP:
Typographic Readability in Theme Design & Development
https://europe.wordcamp.org/2023/session/typographic-readability-in-theme-design-development/
ABSTRACT:
Inviting users to read your text and actually making them read it are not easy tasks. The web content accessibility guidelines (WCAG) are a good starting point, but the factors that condition the experience of reading texts are numerous and interconnected: from the physical mechanisms of reading to the cognitive processes involved, to the amount of attention paid. Web typography best practices and wise font selection could help. Sometimes informed choices and just a few lines of CSS code can make a huge difference.
