General Information About Me
You area at the website of John F Croston III. I'm a web developer and accessibility advocate from the Washington, DC area.
Right now, the website is nothing fancy. It's created with only HTML and CSS. Being an old school developer, I used vCard Microformats here along with the “Gotta Eat Here” website.
My blog is full of posts on what I'm up to. Be that accessibility, travel, etc. Along with things I have created or learned, and any other web related items I have found. You will find a bunch of things related to food.
I enjoy web development a great deal. To do my job, I use the following languages, processes, and skills.
- Accessibility
- Section 508
- WCAG 2.0
- DHS Trusted Testing Process
- Screen readers
- JAWS

In My Spare Time
I enjoy cooking, great wine, running Accessibility DC, walking, and a lot more.
Lately, I've been learning about cooking, farming/homesteading, growing my own food, fermenting, etc.
I tend to read technical books about accessibility, web, development, user experience, and design.
