How to make the web more accessible?

We have the know-how to make the web more accessible; what we're lacking is the will to act on it. The a11y bugs project is a new grass roots effort that aims to spur the stakeholders in web technology into action, to make the web more usable for everyone.

A common accessibility platform

Consistent implementation across browsers is probably the single most important factor for success of any given web feature. We've seen this with CSS, which was mostly unused because the leading browsers had different implementations. In large part thanks to an advocacy effort from WaSP, browser vendors started to harmonize CSS implementations and CSS became the norm.

About

The a11y bugs project is a grass roots advocacy effort to identify and fix bugs that undermine accessibility on the web.

In the works

More bug reports are in the works and will be live when we get a commitment from browser vendors to fix the 3 initial bugs.
