Happy Blue Beanie Day. I think it is important to recognize this day because Web standards and accessibility still matter. And I think it matters more than ever to highlight the need to follow Web standards and to champion accessible content.
Happy Blue Beanie Day. I think it is important to recognize this day because Web standards and accessibility still matter. And I think it matters more than ever to highlight the need to follow Web standards and to champion accessible content. I wrote an article back in 2009 about why I use Web standards and the list still holds true today. The Web platform is getting better and better. We have dialogs that will soon need no JavaScript to open or close or to prevent scrolling on the page underneath it. We have scroll-driven animations in most browsers. We have the detail element that allows for native accordion functionality. CSS just keeps getting better and better. Happy Blue Beanie Day. Long live Web Standards, the Indie Web, accessible content, and the Open Web. The post Blue Beanie Day 2025 appeared first on Jeff Bridgforth.
