Accessibility

  • Artykuł

Accessibility is about building experiences that make your Windows application usable by people who use technology in a wide range of environments and approach your UI with a range of needs and experiences. For some situations, accessibility requirements are imposed by law. However, it's a good idea to address accessibility issues regardless of legal requirements so that your apps have the largest possible audience.

There's also a Microsoft Store declaration regarding accessibility for your app!
