    This is a great tutorial for basic UX accessibility design. I'd love to have a course that uses some of these same examples, but focuses on how to implement them, and the challenges that developers would face. I'd also like a little bit more in depth to the structure section and how to use structure for a site that isn't about articles, like the lawn care site. Lastly, while the WCAG is briefly mentioned, its importance isn't stressed enough, and it should serve as the bare minimum when designing an accessible site.
