Probably will see some changes in the future, though. I'm not a webdev so it's been kind of bothersome to memorize a bunch of tags and properties that I'm going to forget in a year. I just like doing things myself.

Looks interesting, definitely has a vibe to it! ～(つˆ0ˆ)つ｡☆

ARIA tags don’t change the appearance of the page, they are needed for screen readers so people with low or no vision can navigate your page. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA

Screen readers can work without them tho, so you don’t have to do these tags unless you have some complicated form or a custom JavaScript button or something like that.

Neato, TIL. Thanks, friend.

That said, the site will mainly be for displaying digital artwork, so those with limited vision likely won't be a very crucial audience. I'll add accessibility anyways, since you were kind enough to walk me through it.

You'd be surprised. I've seen people who are legally blind enjoy digital art by pressing their screens all the way up against their faces. Or some people can't concentrate on text due to rapid uncontrollable eye movement, but it doesn't stop them from enjoying artwork. ❤️

An artist's work should belong to them, no? Why should they work for nothing while corporations can charge for thoughts?
