As the world strives to be more inclusive, technology leaders are pushing for applications that can be used by the greatest possible number of people. The difficulties faced by people with disabilities when using the Internet can be enormous. This is where accessibility technology comes into play. With developments such as screen readers and speech-to-text software, we need to make sure that the applications we create are accessible to everyone, whether they have a visual, audio, or motor function impairment.
