Workshop: Improving Marketplace Accessibility for the Blind, from the Market’s Experience (Part 2)
summary
A team led by Ilya Sidorchik describes making Yandex.Market more accessible for blind users and keyboard-only users. They identify tricky issues (hard-to-find visible buttons, effects of removing role="button", differences between VoiceOver and NVDA) and show a step-by-step remediation: fix major bugs, improve the UI Kit (titles, images, popups), add keyboard navigation, adjust the touch version, and perform manual and automated testing; a workshop repo is provided.
