BFSG Accessibility with NoCOO

Several options are available to support accessibility in NoCOO in order to fulfil the requirements of the German Accessibility Improvement Act (BFSG). These adaptations increase user-friendliness for people with disabilities and improve the legal conformity of the application.

1. Integration of an accessibility service

A central accessibility service has been implemented to control barrier-free functions and interactions system-wide.

2. Extension of ARIA attributes and inputs

Interactive elements such as buttons and input fields have been provided with meaningful ARIA labels and roles to ensure compatibility with screen readers.

3. Dynamic alt texts for images

Images now receive dynamically assigned alternative texts (alt="${altText}"), which are both informative and language-dependent.

4. Improved keyboard operation

Introduction of keydown events to trigger functions via the Enter key.

Integration of tabindex values to enable full keyboard navigation.

5. New "Barrier-free" dialogue

An additional dialogue has been added that allows users to customise accessible settings. The associated CSS has been revised to provide clear contrasts and easy-to-use components.

These changes are part of our ongoing efforts to make NoCOO accessible and user-friendly for all users.
