Welcome to the Github repository for the accessibility working group of of Project Jupyter. This group is being formed in early 2019. Its goal is to gather stakeholders who can actively work with the project to make Jupyter's core user-facing software accessible. In particular, the initial targets are:
To be clear, as of March 2019 this software is not accessible. Significant work will be required to reach that goal.
Check out the accessibility section of the community forum for ongoing conversations and brainstorms around accessibility in the Jupyter ecosystem.
Once we have assembled the working group, we will list the members here.
One of our goals is to collect information about accessibility and create documentation to empower the Jupyter community to help us make our software accessible. Please use this section to begin to aggregate relevant third party standards, guides, and documentation related to this:
- Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 - W3C Recommendation
- The A11 Project
- 18F Accessibility Guide
- The tota11y toolbar is a lightweight javascript toolbar for quick a11y analysis.
- The WAVE tool is a web analyzer for page accessibility.
- Jupyter Notebook a11y toolbar (from Microsoft research)
A number of open issue related to accessibility are already open on the repos above. Please help us to aggregate links to those here. The preferred way to do this is for each repo to have a unique GitHub label for accessibility, and then to link to the GitHub issue search that automatically lists those issues:
- Jupyter Notebook Accessibility Issues
- JupyterHub Accessibility Issues
- JupyterLab Accessibility Issues
If there are additional issues we are missing, please help us by tagging them or listing them here.
