With the European Accessibility Act setting new benchmarks, accessibility is no longer optional—it’s an essential part of modern development practices. This talk will focus on making Angular applications more inclusive with practical techniques such as using ARIA attributes for better screen reader interactions, managing focus for smooth navigation, implementing auto-focus and skip links in single-page applications (SPAs), and creating accessible navigation flows with Angular’s Router. We’ll also cover linting rules and testing tools to maintain accessibility from development to deployment.
