Sometimes SVG title is not enough and you might want to use id and aria-labelledby attribute to get a title that will be read out by a screen reader via

I managed to buy a ticket for a ballet show in Minsk on Russian-only payment website only because the developers took time to use class names that clearly indicated the meaning. Thank you. /cc

Morning

I am happy to announce that as of two weeks I am a Google Developer Expert in the Web Technologies area. Glad to join so many amazing people in
@GoogleDevExpert

I fixed my company’s blog perf score from 66 to 90 by removing the facebook like widget (it was literally not used in a few months by anyone 😂).
The person of the week this week is Anna Migas
@szynszyliszys
. Beyond speaking and teaching about web performance and animation, she organizes coding workshops and Rails Girls in Cracow, Poland. Thanks for your great efforts, Anna!
Good morning! After a month of not touching coding I am starting my new job today ✨
I couldn’t be more excited, I will be joining
@fieldintel
as a Lead UI Developer. I am so happy that I can help with their mission to make healthcare more accessible in emerging markets 💉
It is one of these days when the dreams come true for me: I am happy to announce that I will be a speaker at the next
@smashingconf
San Francisco in April ✨
I have *ZERO* conferences scheduled ahead and I haven’t feel such peace of mind in 3 years. What a blissful feeling. ☺️🙏
Cleaning my apartment this weekend was a pure pleasure, not a chore. Speaker burnout is real thing, I tell you. [thread]
My speaking schedule for the second part of the year:
🇸🇪
@nordicjs

🇧🇾
@CSS_Minsk_JS
21-22nd September
🇳🇱
@perfnowconf
8-9th November
🇬🇧
@halfstackconf

After that I am taking well deserved rest till the end of 2018. 🙊
A personal update: June is my last month at
@Lunar_Logic

As of the beginning of July I will be joining the team at
@Castle_IO

An important tip from
@_sergeikriger
on getting links read by screen reader: if you hook to link without href, add at least empty href attribute to tab to an element

CSS because I know how to do it… I think Tailwind works if you don’t have to support a project in a long run or you have no clue what you are doing with CSS.
I am really thankful for being invited to speak at
@revojsro
conference.
Presentations and vibes were great, the organizing team has been on top of everything (they even just messaged me that I have late checkout at the hotel just now!).
Highly recommend as a speaker!
#revojs
I instantly feel better about my front-end skills every time I see this little z-index bug in
@Google
search. It’s been like that for a long time and I wonder if really no one there noticed it or they just don’t care 💁🏻♀️
I just arrived at Stockholm for
@nordicjs
conf. The weather is truly nordic and I barely slept but I can’t wait to see a bit of a city and meet the people at the conference😍
#nordicjs
I am really impressed with the
#perfnow
crowd. A lot od people are taking really extensive notes, it is SUPER silent during the talks and people are not leaving the talks at all. I have been to ~10 confs only this year and never saw anything like that. 👏
I love how every time one says they prefer vanilla CSS over
#tailwind
there is somehow an army of Tailwind fans fighting till the last drop in comments. I did not even say I dislike Tailwind.🌝
What a privillege to see
@LeaVerou
speak live for the first time in years. She was my huge inspiration to become a tech speaker (along with
@SaraSoueidan
🥹).
#WeyWeyWeb
I am already on my way to Edinburgh to speak at
@ScotlandCSS
tomorrow. I am beyond happy to be a part of this amazing lineup. Not to mention so many friends that are also headed there 🙉 🙌
#ScotlandCSS2018
Good morning lovely
@frontzurich
folks ✨✨✨
Join my talk at 11:55 today at the lower floor. We will chat about web performance but from a bit different perspective than usual 💫
I just wanted to thank you
@smashingmag
for having me at the conference. ☺️ It was exceptional because of the people that were around. I am happy that you believed I could succeed and gave me a chance to do so. 10/10 would speak again.✨ (8)
I am after first month at
@Castle_IO
. It was stressful change after 7 years of comfy job where I felt I knew my ways, but stepping out of my comfort zone feels really powerful. Even if it means using a framework I didn’t know before and working with people way smarter than me.
New thing: a Performance Budget Calculator where you can set all metrics and it will spit out json file that can be used with Lighthouse

I honestly think that San Francisco is the most depressing city I’ve ever been to. There is no salary or perks or networking argument that would make me want to move here.
I barely got over
#FrontZurich
and tomorrow I am speaking at
@smashingconf
in Freiburg, Germany. My session on Performance Debugging is at 10:55am tomorrow and I am really excited about being a part of this fantastic event yet again.
#smashingconf
Btw. not sure how many
#FrontZurich
attendees know that
@tobilessnow
(who is DJing in the lower floor) also creates his own music (which is fantastic) and you can listen to it for free or download it on his website:
Fronteers Conference is back in 2023 on the 21st and 22nd of September. This time not 1, but two days of fantastic talks from 14 great speakers ✨
🎟️Tickets will be on sale tomorrow at 12 o'clock!
Nothing like
@____lighthouse
audit tab going down when you need it for a live coding demo on improving perf on a stage 💁🏻♀️
Thank you for being so supportive today,
#ffconf
. Check out

version if you want to know what it should look like:
Never had a wedding of my own, but I believe being a conference speaker can be a similar experience: not enjoying the event fully overthinking if it went well, missing food breaks, being congratulated (thoughts while sneaking in the corner eating leftover salad at

)
Amazing picture showing different types of impairment that might make it needed for the user to use accessibility features of web at

It was truly heartwarming seeing how such affordable conference can have amazing lineup and community. If I were a company looking for a conference to sponsor, I would probably pick this one 💫
"UI patterns can be a cause of frustration". However, Anna Migas
@szynszyliszys
has a solution for that! "Fast but not furious: debugging user interaction performance issues" it's the title of her talk. 🚗💨She will demystify the rendering process for you.

[Thread] As the fantastic
#SmashingConf
has come to an end I had some thoughts about speaking and an audience. For some time now I was feeling like I’ve been experiencing a speaker burnout. 😪 (1)
I will be speaking at wonderful one day conference in London on 15th of November -
@halfstackconf
I also have a privillege to give away one ticket for free. If you are interested: please retweet and write a comment why you should get the free invite.
Good morning
#WeyWeyWeb
! I am really excited to be here. I invite you all to come to my talk at 16:30 (just before the closing keynote!) today. ✨
#webperf
I can say that I am truly humbled to have been a part of
@ffconf
lineup and being mentioned in
@adactio
’s blogpost is a cherry on a top to that experience.
#ffconf
After putting my Twitter handle in the first slide and mentioning that people can follow me I got 3x more followers after a talk than usual. I guess me saying how to pronounce it helped 😂
#perfnow
In 40min see you in room 1,
#armadajs
I will share my thoughts on web performance in non standard conditions and a lot of
#webperf
tricks you can use. 👋
Time to announce another speaker!
Welcome
@szynszyliszys
from
@lunar_logic
to our line-up :)
Get yourself a limited edition, gold plated ticket*, now!
* ticket isn't gold plated
Be careful what you wish for! My last speaking gig this year is one and only
@ffconf
in Brighton organized by
@rem
.
See y'all in there on November 8th 👋
I will be speaking about performance, as usual. 💜
There's one individual on Twitter who's profile I keep landing on and intend to invite to speak at
@ffconf
, and then immediately remember they're speaking at another conference on the same date. Damn my memory. But props to
@szynszyliszys
for their work and being that person.
What happens if a medicine graduate decides to pick up web dev? A talk about why we are able to perceive small things and how the eyes work and why ugly off gradient will be irritating and how to make it smooth. Thank you
