Using non-semantic elements as buttons results in:

1. No native keyboard support
2. No native focus support
3. No native screen reader support

This functionalities should be customly developed to make the non-semantic elements accessible.

No connection to DequeSystems - just an independent voice sharing #a11y knowledge and best practices for developers. 🚀

You're absolutely right! 🎯 Nothing about us without us - real accessibility comes from listening to and learning from users with disabilities. Guidelines give us a foundation, but user experiences show us how to make them truly meaningful.
Thank you for this valuable perspective! #a11y

🎯 Great work making the app reflow-compliant! These "surgery" moments are what make web accessibility real. Would love to hear more about the specific HTML/CSS challenges you tackled - sharing these wins helps everyone level up their #a11y implementation skills 💪 #axecore

💯 Never stop learning! Let's share knowledge, learn from diverse perspectives, and keep pushing for better digital inclusion. Progress over perfection.
Key to remember: listening to people with disabilities is essential for meaningful #a11y improvements. #WebAccessibility

Many say that "beautiful" and "accessible" cannot coexist together. Well that's not true. A button is more beautiful with a hover animation right? Why shouldn't the focus state have the same attention?

However we all learn and grow in our #A11y journey. So keep learning about web accessibility best practices at your own pace, no one is chasing you. 😉

Alt text’s primary purpose is providing equal access to image content for screen readers users. While concise and descriptive text is great, keeping it “fun” or “hilarious” could make content less accessible and confusing. Best practice is clear, relevant descriptions that convey the image’s meaning
