Web accessibility refers to the ability to access a Web site and its content by as many people as possible, no matter what their navigation context or physical disability
By “navigation context” we mean devices, browsers, Internet connection speed, peripherals, browser or computer configuration, environmental conditions, etc. Whilst disabilities are understood to be visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive.
