Web Accessibility Fundamentals
Practical strategies for making interfaces inclusive from day one.
Accessibility is about enabling everyone to succeed, not just passing audits.
### Start with semantics
Use the correct HTML element, label inputs clearly, and describe media with alternative text.
### Test like a user
- Navigate with only the keyboard
- Try a screen reader such as VoiceOver or NVDA
- Check contrast with automated tooling
Make accessibility part of code review checklists so it never becomes an afterthought.
