Accessibility tips / best practices #21

Let's start thinking about how we can make our web entities more accessible. I know it adds tons of development and QA time and is probably nearly impossible to make a frequently changed website fully accessible. But maybe adding ARIA attributes can be a good starting point?

Even using semantic HTML is a good starting point- making sure we're using links and buttons when appropriate, that forms have the correct labels, that navigation is marked up as such and is skippable by screen readers if desired.

Are there good pre-existing guides for this that we can just link to?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA should be a good start.
