Web App Accessibility Essentials

Web App Accessibility Essentials provides patterns and short-lists of the most common accessibility requirements.

This guide is intended to provide best practices and accessibility patterns for 

• Designers, in helping them understand the nuances and details of their designs. 
• Application developers, especially those who are on their own in terms of design. The guide can provide direction when designs are lacking.

When appropriate we have provided examples of semantic HTML that meets these requirements. Semantic HTML provides structural meaning to your content. This meaning helps technologies such as search engines and screen readers better consume and understand your page.

Note: This is a starting point. Not every fix or accessibility guideline is listed, but by following these essentials your applications will be on a good starting path for accessibility.
