[Athen] ARIA book?

[PATRICK BURKE]

Hi Carolyn & welcome!

You might want to start with something like Apps For All (Heydon Pickering;
Smashing eBooks):
https://shop.smashingmagazine.com/products/apps-for-all
(See esp. the last user review for ARIA relevance.)

It's hard to study ARIA in isolation. Since it bridges the gaps between
HTML, Javascript & CSS, you end up having to know something about all of
them. So texts (or blogs or GitHub sites) about HTML5 & accessibility,
progressive enhancement, etc., will also have a lot of ARIA-related
content. If you like the real technical details, check out the Paciello
Group Blog.:

If you're working with menus or various interactive widgets, check out the
Visual ARIA Bookmarklet (by Brian Garaventa). It provides a handy way to
show if ARIA focus control & keyboard accessibility are working properly:

Best of luck,
Patrick
