Learn Accessibility & Build Accessible Web Apps are great intros.
- UI component libraries are using the term “accessible” too freely. Adding focus styles and copy-pasting some ARIA roles doesn't make your library accessible, neither does adding an “accessibility” page where you claim to conform to WCAG just because you ran a Lighthouse test.
- My big a11y tip is to learn about ARIA roles and accessible names and use a test framework that lets you select by role+name. see your app the way screen reader users do. I find a ton of a11y bugs this way
