I recently did some preliminary work adding accessibility support to an existing Angular application. At the start of this work I knew very little about website accessibility, and I suspect the evolution of my thinking during the process would be common amongst other developers who have been in the same situation. Specifically:
- Initial annoyance at having to do it
- Slow progress reworking sections of markup
- Growing satisfaction that the app was becoming accessible to a broader audience
- The realisation that the codebase itself was actually better off for the process
In this post I’ll talk about the 3 things that I’ve done so far during this journey to an accessible Angular app: accessible icons, keyboard navigation and finally, ARIA support.
