Code Review
This pull request improves the accessibility of the "remove image" button in the ImageUploader component by adding focus ring styles, an aria-label, and hiding the inner icon from screen readers. The feedback suggests using a highly contrasting focus ring color (such as primary blue instead of red) to ensure the focus indicator is clearly visible on the red button, improving compliance with WCAG accessibility guidelines.

Using a red focus ring (focus-visible:ring-red-500) on a red button (bg-red-500) provides poor contrast and makes the focus indicator difficult to see, especially if the underlying image also contains red tones. To comply with WCAG accessibility guidelines for focus visibility, use a highly contrasting color like the theme's primary blue (focus-visible:ring-primary-blue).

💡 What: Improved accessibility for the "remove image" button in
src/components/ImageUploader.tsx. Addedaria-labelattribute, set the inner Lucide icon toaria-hidden="true", and introduced visible keyboard focus states.🎯 Why: The button was purely visual (an 'X' icon) and had no programmatic name for screen readers, making it unclear to assistive technology users. Additionally, keyboard-only users navigating the interface had no visual indication when the button was focused.
📸 Before/After:
<button title="Remove"><X /></button><button title="Remove" aria-label="Remove" className="... focus-visible:ring-2 ..."><X aria-hidden="true" /></button>♿ Accessibility:

Overview
Improves accessibility for the overlay remove image control in
ImageUploaderwhen a preview is shown.The button gets an
aria-labelfromt('removeImage')so assistive tech has a clear name beyond the icon andtitle. The LucideXicon is markedaria-hidden="true"so it isn’t read as redundant content. Keyboard focus is clearer via Tailwindfocus-visiblering/offset classes andfocus-visible:outline-noneon the button.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 61beef6.
