Accessibility in Focus: Applying WCAG to Improve User Experience

In this session, we will explore the recent accessibility improvements made to the self-service section of the midPoint application, with a focus on compliance with WCAG guidelines. Kate Honchar will walk you through the steps taken to enhance keyboard navigation, ensuring a smoother experience for users relying on keyboard-only interaction. Additionally, we’ll discuss how key UI elements were updated with appropriate ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to improve user communication and ensure a more accessible interface. This workshop will provide insights into the practical application of WCAG standards. It’s ideal for anyone interested in learning how small, thoughtful changes can significantly enhance the accessibility of web applications, particularly for users with disabilities.
