What do you need to build a prototype? Or an MVP (Minimum Viable Product). I knew it had to be usable for sighted, visually impaired, and blind people. A comic book is made up of pages with panels; in each panel, there are word balloons and text inside the word balloons. My first attempt displayed the pages in a carousel, but I quickly discovered that carousels are terrible for accessibility. Next, I decided to display the pages on a scrolling page, as this is the natural way people read content on a website. But how do you display the images so they are accessible? Easy, with semantic HTML. And the difference between Mobile and desktop? Desktop shows what a physical comic looks like. Mobile has the word balloons removed (Eventually, in my prototype, I couldn’t as I don’t have the source files and my photo manipulating ability is non-existent), with the text below the images, so it reads more like a prose novel. I took the liberty of using the first three pages of Amazing Spider-Man number 1 to show a proof of concept. Introducing www.Accomible.com
