Most of the issues I find in software seem to fall into two buckets.
Either the developer used standard controls but failed to label them, or
they made custom controls and failed to finish the job by making them
accessible (undiscoverable or unusable). The former is easier to fix,
the latter can be difficult depending on what kind of crazy UI they
thought up.

True enough. The thing is, most developers know and will probably
still use Objective-C for quite a while to come. I haven't used the
Swift language yet, but I don't see how it will help avoid
accessibility problems. It may offer slightly faster coding, but that
is about it. I'll let you all know if my opinion changes as I get more
into Swift, which won't be until Xcode6 comes out.

They have a new language which is called Swift. Seems to eliminate a
lot of the cruft required to get ObjectiveC to do what they want and
also eliminates a number of constructs that were authoring errors. So
it sounds like they are trying to set developers up for success more
easily which should be good for everybody.

Hi guys
I just got through listening to the keynote, and I didn't hear
anything that calls me to say, all know jeepers! I think we're going
to be okay basically, but, as always, we will probably have some
Accessibility miseries for a while. If I understand what was said,
they wrote a new programming language which, if I understand what
was going on there, they'll be able to figure out problems easier.
Do I get that right?
Sincerely,
Gigi

In short, I'm okay at least for the next round. Can you just
imagine how that's going to work out with accessibility?

Has anyone found these? I'm wondering if my decrepit 2009 Mac
Mini is up to the task. Actually, it's pretty spry for its age. :)
