Or: How every button, form, and focus state opens doors
Accessibility usually shows up at the worst time — right at the end of a project, when launch is looming and a scan has just dumped 47 warnings in your lap. Sound familiar?
But accessibility isn’t a fire drill. It’s not a punishment. And it definitely isn’t something you should be expected to bolt on at the end.
Just like performance or security, accessibility works best when it’s part of how you build from the start.
That doesn’t mean memorizing every ARIA role. It means building awareness and habits so you can prevent issues instead of playing whack-a-mole with them later.
In this section, we’ll look at:
- what to test
- what to watch for
- and how to build better by default (without losing your mind).
