Accessibility, what, why and how?
summary
Evaluation shows the top million homepages average 59.6 errors per page and 97.8 percent of sites contain accessibility faults, detected with tools like Wave, lighthouse, ax coconut, chromeboys, JAWS and VoiceOver. Practical fixes include using semantic HTML instead of div-as-button, adding meaningful alt attributes, ensuring keyboard focus and visible outlines, checking color contrast, and providing captions/transcripts. Testing workflow combines automated linters and unit checks with manual audits: listen with a screen reader, navigate with the keyboard, and disable the mouse to validate real-world accessibility.
