What HTML and ARIA attributes are needed for an accessible carousel?
Hi Rhian,
When creating an accessible carousel, it’s important to use semantic elements like <section> or <ul> to structure your content. You can also use ARIA attributes like role="region" or role="group" to define the carousel as a distinct section of your page.
To ensure that the carousel is properly communicated to users of assistive technologies, you can use aria-label to provide a concise label for the carousel, aria-live="polite" to announce updates to the carousel content, and aria-roledescription="carousel" to describe its role on the page.
