Case Study: Building Accessible UI using Github Co-pilot

Accessibility isn’t just about ticking boxes, it’s about building experiences that everyone can use. In this case study, Navya Agarwal from Adobe walks us through her real-world journey using GitHub Copilot to create accessible components for Adobe Express.

From code suggestions to implementation pitfalls, Navya shares the highs and lows of working with Copilot in the context of inclusive design. You’ll hear what worked, what didn’t, and what AI still can’t replace. This talk covers accessibility myths, practical tips, and how to combine keyboard interactivity, ARIA roles, and semantic HTML to build truly usable UI components.
