What is Web Accessibility?
Website accessibility refers to the practice of designing and building websites in a way that makes them accessible to as many people as possible, including those with disabilities. This includes designing websites that are accessible to users with visual, auditory, physical, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) defines Web Accessibility as the following:
Web accessibility means that websites, tools, and technologies are designed and developed so that people with disabilities can use them.
