Auditing React Apps for Accessibility
Web accessibility (also referred to as a11y) is the design and creation of websites that everyone can use. Accessibility support is necessary to allow assistive technology to interpret web pages.
Accessibility is an essential aspect in web development, yet often neglected.
As web developers, we can eliminate barriers restricting a person's ability to interact with our application.
Erin Doyle is an expert in creating accessible React applications and has developed a course that will give you a concrete process for auditing react apps for accessibility.
