@mjausson Just to clarify: by "accessible" do you mean possible to be used by everyone, including users with differing access needs such as screen reader or other assistive technology users? Are you aiming at specific grading criteria towards that goal?

@Piciok Those are great questions! When I boosted Bellingcats’s post, I assumed the goal was to improve #a11y for disabled users. That’s the most common meaning of accessibility in software development. But they mean accessibility for less technical people.
