What is Web accessibility?
Plainly put, Web accessibility enables people with disabilities to perceive, understand, navigate, interact with, and contribute to the Web. Much like how years ago, the Americans with Disabilities Act stepped up for those who cannot walk and required wheelchair access to all buildings constructed after 1991, user experience (UX) designers should ensure equal accessibility for all users by designing Web-based experiences that can be used, understood, and accessed by people with a diverse range of visual, auditory, cognitive, and physical abilities.
