Angular accessibility
Angular accessibility is supported by the @angular/cdk/a11y module (FocusTrap, LiveAnnouncer, FocusMonitor, AriaDescriber) and Angular Material components — but achieving WCAG 2.2 AA in a complex Angular app still requires deliberate work on routing announcements, modal focus management, and form validation messaging.
What does accessibility mean on Angular?
