JavaScript library to help make accessibility simpler

ally.js launched on December 12, 2015 with 3 votes. The site was still online in September 2026, 10 years on.

What it does

ally.js is a JavaScript library simplifying certain accessibility features, functions and behaviors. However, simply loading ally.js will not automagically make a web application accessible. The library provides certain standard functions the "web platform" should've provided itself, so JavaScript applications can be made accessible more easily. ally.js has been tested on IE9+, Firefox, Chrome and Safari 9, as well as Mobile Chrome on Android 5.1 and Safari for iOS 9. How would you prevent elements outside of your modal dialog or menu from receiving focus? Do you know which elements are focusable or tabbable ? ally.js does and does it's best to hide that complexity behind simple to use APIs…from allyjs.io
