HTML Accessibility

Accessibility ensures that web content is usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. HTML provides features like semantic elements and ARIA roles to improve accessibility.

Accessibility Best Practices

• Use Semantic Elements: Use elements like <header>, <nav>, and <main> to structure your content.
• Provide Alternative Text: Use the alt attribute to describe images for screen readers.
• Use ARIA Roles: Use ARIA roles and attributes to enhance accessibility for dynamic content.
• Keyboard Navigation: Ensure all interactive elements are accessible via keyboard.

Example: Semantic HTML

<header>
  <h1>Website Title</h1>
</header>
<nav>
  <a href="#">Home</a>
  <a href="#">About</a>
</nav>
<main>
  <article>
    <h2>Article Title</h2>
    <p>Article content...</p>
  </article>
</main>
<footer>

</footer>
      

Example: ARIA Roles

<button aria-label="Close">X</button>
<div role="alert">This is an alert message.</div>
      

Example: Keyboard Navigation

<a href="#" tabindex="0">Click me</a>
<button tabindex="0">Submit</button>
