Turns out I have more followers over on the @yatil instance. So I’ll redirect from here and use that. (Instances are weird and complicated.)

Is this thing still on?
@b_cavello Basically, if you want to use a button, us a <button> element. It brings all the keyboard interaction users expect and all the semantics. If you link to somewhere the element should be <a>. You can use ARIA and JavaScript to use other elements in a similar way, but then the whole responsibility to make it right is on your shoulders. It is very likely that those self-built elements have accessibility issues.

Oh, damn, this was terribly confusing!
I saw it grey, but checked, so I thought it was disabled AND checked, so no possibility of unchecking it (except from DevTools).
Turns out grey & checked look is actually unchecked. Pink is hover/ focus/ checked. Sigh...

A <div> isn't a button. No matter how many hoops you jump through to try and make it behave like one. Use native HTML elements to achieve your purpose. #a11y

Part 2 of my chat with @[email protected] is now available: https://a11yrules.com/podcast/e52-interview-with-eric-meyer-part-2/ Eric states that accessibility is a foundational principle of the web. I couldn't agree more. #a11y #podcast We also spoke about the famous focus {outline: 0;} thing :)
