Cross-root ARIA
Standardisation for Accessibility when using Shadow DOM
ARIA is a technology used by developers to add accessibility attributes to web-based user interfaces. Web Components are a set of tools which allow developers to create components which can be used in a framework-independent way across different websites. Due to the way Web Components provide encapsulation, using Shadow DOM, some parts of ARIA have become incompatible with Web Components. This project will contribute to ongoing efforts to provide web developers with mechanisms to make these technologies work together. Our goal is to contribute to the relevant specifications, as well as implementing and shipping the proposed solution in one additional browser.
