Additionally, Node revolutionized web development for javascript engineers around the world. Node enabled for the first time the ability to run javascript outside of the browser - this powered server-side framework for RESTful web APIs, web app hosting, local scripts, web scraping, and much more! Moreover, Node is backed by a strong & thriving community of open-source projects and packages via the Node Package Management registry. This empowered individual engineers to leverage the vast sea of available packages that simplify nearly any use case. In our latest episode, Juan Lizarazo and Jared Potter explore the key-value gains from using Node and how javascript runs outside the browser to enable these new possibilities.

However, approximately 10-20% of the population have a disability of some form. These range from blind/visual impairments, low visual acuity, cognitive impairments, motor/dexterity, and auditory. In today's podcast Jared Potter and Juan Lizarazo, tackle best practices for building accessible web apps from the get-go rather than a dedicated accessible sprint. From building semantic HTML, logical element layouts, image usage, etc.
