When you’re scripting for a screen reader, then you’re scripting for the browser, with exactly the same level of JavaScript support.
However complications can arise with event handling, because screen readers intercept events and don't always pass them on to the browser, and even then, keyboard actions might fire mouse events.

Jak jsem si dovezl elektroauto z Německa
Dnes volně navazuji na článek Jak jsem si dovezl auto z Německa, který jsem napsal před téměř deseti lety a který za tu dobu nasbíral 8,5 tisíce přečtení. To ho řadí mezi pět nejpopulárnějších článků na tomto blogu. Tentokrát se zaměřím na čerstvou zkušenost s dovozem elektroauta z Německa. Proces se výrazněji neliší, ale přece jenom se pár věcí za těch deset let změnilo a pár věcí je specifických čistě pro elektroauta.

Saying that 30% of all your code is generated “by software” (not “by AI”, but “by software”) is what you’d say if you knew perfectly well you can’t write and maintain a production OS with LLMs, but you have a financial motivation to inflate the number to ride a hype wave and eyeballed how much of your committed code is machine-generated by templates techcrunch.com/2025/04/29/micr…
EDIT: it seems this reporting omitted the rather load-bearing phrase "in some of our projects" from his exact words:
> I’d say maybe 20 to 30 percent of the code that is inside of our repos today in some of our projects are probably all written by software.
Now, can I believe that "some" projects at Microsoft are 30% AI-generated? Yes, because they have a lot of projects at a lot of different levels of needs-to-workness.
