Accessibility
How everybody benefits from accessibility
When something is accessible, it means that as many people as possible – including people with disabilities – are able to use it. Accessibility is part of providing equal opportunities and helps people with disabilities take a more active role in society. In the physical world, accessibility can mean ramps, wide elevator doors, and tactile maps in Braille. In digital environments, accessibility means that all information and functionality are available also to people who are blind, deaf, have motoric or cognitive disabilities.

Trinidad Wiseman digitizes public services in Kenya
In collaboration with ESTDEV and Kenyan government agencies and stakeholders, we successfully completed a project analysing and designing public services in Kenya. The Kenyan digital development project is part of Estonia's largest externally funded digitalization initiative in Africa, led by the Estonian Centre for International Development Cooperation (ESTDEV). The project was funded by the Team Europe Initiative's (TEI) program to promote human-centred digitalization, led by GIZ through the Kenya Digital Transformation Centre (DTC), with a budget of 2.4 million euros.

Let's talk about DevOps (Development Operations) as the art of business process optimisation
DevOps (Development Operations) is a mix of practical values, and ideological goals that help development teams automate their core processes. This ensures specialists have the time and resources to tackle the most valuable challenges.

The role of testing in the development process 
In some software projects, testing is often overlooked, based on the assumption that developers can handle it themselves or that end-users will report any issues. However, a developer is not a tester – just as a chef is not an independent critic of their own dishes. When testing is done by someone too closely involved with the solution, critical issues may go unnoticed. Moreover, users typically do not report bugs – they simply stop using the software. In this article, we explain why an independent tester plays a critical role in software development.

Artificial intelligence alone won’t save you – why data management is the key to success?
To maximise the benefits of AI, analytics, and machine learning, it is essential to focus on data quality and data management in both daily operations and software development. Even the most sophisticated algorithm is only as good as the data that powers it. Analyst Kristin Meriniit will discuss fundamental data management principles that are universally valuable—whether your organisation is just beginning its data management journey or already has extensive experience.

Drupal CMS 1.0 – a new version or a new direction?
Feedback often suggests that Drupal is too complex — seemingly designed only for developers, or that "working with Drupal requires a PhD." Such perceptions spread quickly, creating the false impression that Drupal is outdated. This, in turn, may discourage potential users from adopting Drupal. In the article, we introduce the new powerful Drupal CMS.

Does your digital environment meet accessibility requirements in force from June?
Accessibility is an increasingly important topic. Public sector websites and mobile applications have had to meet the European Union digital accessibility standard EN 301 549 since 2019. These requirements have not yet been enforced for the private sector. However, the situation is changing, as by 2025 many private sector companies will have to take a critical look at their online environments. Read more in this article.

Prototyping is more than just folding a paper plane
The need to create a prototype and the benefits prototypes bring are understood better than ever before. However, often, people do not realise that to create a prototype, it is necessary to do a considerable amount of preliminary work, i.e. to collect the correct input using different methods to ensure that the prototype meets the needs and goals of all parties involved.

In our blog series TWN Life we get acquainted with the talented team members at Trinidad Wiseman (TWN) working on different positions. This time, we had a chat with our software developer Taavi Kirss from software development, his other career as a plane pilot, and much else. As always, we also threw in a couple of tricky questions. Find out how Taavi got into software development and what his favourite projects at Trinidad Wiseman are.

How to successfully implement an intranet based on the example of the e-Residency team
Since 2014, the e-Residency team has been working to give global entrepreneurs remote digital access to Estonia’s e-services. Before, the organisation lacked a single cohesive system for managing all the information they were working with, which created various bottlenecks. In cooperation with the client, we created a new intranet for the team, using Atlassian’s Confluence software and its site building product Refined. In this post, we will share the experience we got from this project as well as recommendations for how to successfully implement an intranet.
