Overview

Implement comprehensive accessibility features following WCAG guidelines to ensure your application is usable by everyone, including people with disabilities.

When to Use

• Building public-facing web applications
• Ensuring WCAG 2.1/2.2 AA or AAA compliance
• Supporting screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver)
• Implementing keyboard-only navigation
• Meeting ADA, Section 508, or similar regulations
• Improving SEO and overall user experience
• Conducting accessibility audits

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

<!-- Bad: Non-semantic markup -->
<div class="button"

<!-- Good: Semantic HTML -->
<button type="submit" aria-label="Submit form">Submit</button>

<!-- Custom components with proper ARIA -->
<div
  role="button"
  tabindex="0"
  aria-pressed="false"
 
 
>
  Toggle Feature
</div>

<!-- Form with proper labels and error handling -->
<form>
  <label for="email">Email Address</label>
  <input
    id="email"
    type="email"
    name="email"
    aria-required="true"
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)
