# Accessibility
|
||||
|
||||
Millions of Mac users have some disability or special needs. They use screen readers and special
|
||||
hardware to open up a world that they would otherwise be cut off from. With a small amount of
|
||||
developer work, we can help these users live better lives.
|
||||
|
||||
Because NetNewsWire utilizes standard AppKit controls and views, accessibility is already built in.
|
||||
However this is only a starting point. Any customized controls and views will have accessibility
|
||||
work and the application as a whole has to be tested to make sure users can operate if effeciently.
|
||||
|
||||
This document lays the groundwork to ensure that NetNewsWire has first class accessibility features.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Application Design
|
||||
|
||||
- Support full keyboard navigation
|
||||
- Don’t override built-in keyboard shortcuts (by default)
|
||||
- Provide alternatives for drag-and-drop operations
|
||||
|
||||
#### Audit
|
||||
|
||||
The Accessibility Inspector included with the developer tools includes an automated audit tool. This
|
||||
tool didn't find an issues when initially run against NetNewsWire. Additional auditing will be
|
||||
performed using the Inspector functionality within the Accessibility Inspector tool.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Testing
|
||||
|
||||
Manual testing using VoiceOver and Dictation will be done to provide more realworld-like feedback.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Reporting Accessibility Issues
|
||||
|
||||
The results of the accessiblity audit should get filed as separate bugs on Github.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Success Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
- Should be fully navigatable using the keyboard
|
||||
- Should be fully navigatable using Dictation
|
||||
- SHould be fully discoverable using VoiceOver
