What web accessibility is

Web accessibility ensures that websites, tools, and technologies are designed and developed to be usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. It focuses on removing barriers that might prevent individuals from accessing digital content or interacting with online platforms effectively.

Key Aspects of Web Accessibility:

Perceivable: Information and interface elements must be presented in ways users can recognize, such as providing alternative text for images or captions for videos.
Operable: Navigation and functionality must be accessible via keyboard, voice commands, or other assistive technologies.
Understandable: Content and user interfaces must be easy to read, navigate, and comprehend.
Robust: Websites should be compatible with a variety of assistive tools, devices, and technologies.

Web accessibility is not just a legal or technical requirement—it’s a fundamental aspect of inclusivity, ensuring equal access to information and services for all individuals.
