I'm following the ARIA authoring practices from the W3 for web components I'm writing for a #Svelte app.
I've been experimenting with lots of companies' web sites and component libraries.
It's disappointing how much variation there is in support (even from big companies). Many have wrongly applied anti-patterns and have failed to cover even 25% of the documented patterns.
A lot of component libraries do the minimum and still claim #a11y. 🤬 Trust these after verification.
I'm definitely not an expert and may make a mistake the first time, but I can read and follow instructions (and I'm just a solo-dev working for myself).
@wiredprairie FWIW, most of the APG patterns are not mature and have poor support. The warnings at the top of each pattern were long-fought just to get those there.
Understand that APG is mostly a playground for ARIA-first approaches to things that may already exist in HTML or are efforts to recreate native OS features.
