Create Web sites and software that meet the sensory, dexterity, and cognitive needs of your users. Whether you're a developer or a project manager, this guide teaches you how to incorporate programmatic access and keyboard access into your interfaces--starting at the product planning and design stage.


  • Follow a real-world example that integrates accessibility at each stage of the development cycle

  • See how the components of the UI Automation architecture fit together to enable accessibility

  • Deliver programmatic access through the API--and expose navigation, interactive controls, keyboard focus, and other important information about the UI

  • Design a logical hierarchy for the UI that meets the programmatic and keyboard navigation needs of your users

  • Know when to apply common controls and when it's worth the expense to build custom controls

  • Give users a variety of accessibility options--from font size and color contrast to screen readers and voice recognition

  • Test your product's accessibility features and document the implementation
