Hello! I’m making changes to a web app that involves some aria classes, and I read the docs about how they work, but I’m not real confident in my ability to construct them into something that produces a well-usable experience for someone who’s using the app. Is there a good way to get direct feedback from someone who uses a screenreader, or otherwise get some evaluation on whether what I’ve fumbled together is actually functioning well?

    a browser extension i use for a cursory check is ‘WAVE evaluation tool’. which examines your webpage and reviews your structure, tags, color contrast etc. Like what you posted in your own response, you can always just learn to use a screen reader. i use NVDA and it didn’t really take all that long to learn how to use it. you will certainly gain a new perspective if you do.

    hope this helps!
