Before adding ARIA or JavaScript, ask: can HTML do that already? Simpler code often means better accessibility.

HTML Can Do That
HTML has been gobbling up swathes of what used to be JavaScript’s remit. This page lists a bunch of dynamic functionality that we can now achieve with just HTML.

An H1 isn't about font size. It's about meaning and structure. Diana Khalipina challenges common heading myths.

#Accessibility #WebAccessibility #A11y #WCAG #SemanticHTML #UX
Why H1 is not just the biggest text on the page
Visually, you can make any text look like a heading with CSS, but for someone using a screen reader, an actual <h1> is part of the page structure.

Bold ≠ . One changes appearance, the other conveys meaning. Diana Khalipina explains why semantic HTML matters.

a11ywithdiana.substa...

#Accessibility #A11y #WebAccessibility #HTML #SemanticHTML #WebDevelopment #InclusiveDesign #WCAG
Bold is not the same as <strong>
One of those little HTML decisions that seem like they only affect style, but can have a big impact on accessibility: using <strong> when you only want bold text, or using CSS font-weight: bold on something that’s actually important.
