# Accessibility Most accessibility is free if you use the platform. Native elements ship with keyboard support, real labels announce themselves and a visible focus ring is one CSS rule. Write every fix in the project's styling system, and use the exact values below rather than familiar-looking substitutes. Reviewing means two walks. Keyboard-only, where every flow completes without a mouse. Then screen-reader, where every control announces a name, a role and its state. When unsure, take the platform default over a custom rebuild, and remove ARIA rather than add it. Contrast measurement and color fixes belong to `better-colors`. Text sizing and iOS input zoom belong to `better-typography`. Spatial RTL layout belongs to `better-layout`. ## Native elements first The first rule of ARIA: don't use ARIA when a native element exists. `<button>` for actions, `<a href>` for navigation, never `<div onClick>`. A real link must support Cmd/Ctrl/middle-click. No ARIA is better than bad ARIA. See [semantics-and-aria.md](semantics-and-aria.md) for landmarks, button-vs-link and disabled states. ## Visible focus rings Style `:focus-visible`, not bare `:focus`. Keyboard users get a ring and mouse users usually don't. Prefer the browser's unmodified indicator. A custom ring needs a project focus token or another explicit color. Verify the whole indicator against every adjacent color it crosses, `currentColor` included. Use at least a `2px` solid perimeter or an equivalent visible area.
