About Leandro

Leandro Aebischer is a web developer at Werkstatt Bern and one of the more persistent voices for an open, accessible web. His work sits at the intersection of frontend engineering and accessibility auditing: he builds fast, standards-based products and then holds them — and his clients — to the same bar.

He contributes regularly to open-source projects and speaks at meetups about why accessibility is a baseline, not a feature. Leandro believes the best digital products are the ones nobody notices struggling to use.
