Matthew Ling and I did a series of livestreams where we build out a digital download shop using Eleventy, Stripe, Netlify, and more. First it was a meetup talk, then the livestreams, then 3 companion articles. Now you can finally find them all in one place in my new blog post!

It was funny because it was so relatable. The planets must have been aligned because the day before I found it, I attended the CSS Cafe meetup where Josh Comeau gave this excellent talk on the hidden/secret fundamentals of CSS which covered this exact issue. He used some great analogies for this and other CSS concepts that will finally stick with me. I hope. 🤞
And it’s probably time to consider that making your site more accessible could lead to more conversions than making it compatible with IE.
I hate when folks focus on IE. They are more worried about the 0.2% of people on IE than the 8+% of people over 45 with macular degeneration, to cite just 1 accessibility statistic.

The number of people needing your site to be more accessible is higher than the number on IE.
