Tweet of the week is @SaraSoueidan dropping a11y knowledge.
#TIL that a horizontal rule (
<hr>) is announced by screen readers (announced “horizontal splitter” in VoiceOver), so unless it is a semantic thematic break between paragraphs of content (i.e. not just visual decoration), u’ll want to hide it usingaria-hidden = "true"#a11y— Sara Soueidan (@SaraSoueidan) April 17, 2020
The book recommendation this week is Alibaba’s World - How One Remarkable Chinese Company Is Changing the Face of Global Business by Porter Erisman. It’s an interesting look at Alibaba’s beginnings and how it came to prominence in China & the world. Not sure I remember why but it feels like 4/5 ⭐️book (or so my spreadsheet says).
That’s all for this week, stay tuned for more JavaScript tips to help you get stuff done.
