Join me if you'd like to learn a few tricks on how to:
  • Allow your users to switch themes dynamically,
  • Changing font size in your apps dynamically,
  • Making your apps multilingual in less than ONE MINUTE
  • Text-to-speech in your apps and building your own screen reader,
  • Do's and don't of your design,
  • Leverage built-in Windows tools to help you with accessible design,
  • Save user preferences for next time they launch the app! 🤩
And to make it even better... all of that can be achieved WITHOUT premium connectors! #LetsIncludeAll #AccessibilityInAction https://aka.ms/30DLPPLandingPage Speaker Bio: Kristine Kolodziejski - Kristine Kolodziejski is a Principal Technical Consultant based in London, UK working across Power Platform, Azure and M365 stack.
