Share: What ARIA still does not do

I came across this awesome article from Steve Faulkner earlier this week. A nice explanation on What ARIA does not do.

Wanted to add a little note on here so I do not lose it and can refernce in the future.

I particularly liked the following statement, and is something that I have come across being an issue on many occasions when testing, analysing and remediating accessibility on sites:

Use of ARIA is a promise you as a developer make to screen reader users.

As long as developers implement ARIA according to its rules of use in HTML and implement interaction patterns (usually via JavaScript) that agree with the standard pattern for a particular role, all is well. When they do not there is grief.
