Handsontable 14.0.0 improves screen reader support and adds new keyboard shortcuts to help make navigation more intuitive and inclusive.

Handsontable is a JavaScript data grid component that provides a spreadsheet-like user experience for web applications. It allows developers to easily integrate data tables into their web pages, enabling users to manipulate data in a familiar and intuitive way.

Handsontable V14 now meets Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA standards, making it easier for people with disabilities to use the grid. This release also enhances screen reader compatibility by incorporating ARIA attributes into the HTML markup, ensuring seamless navigation for users of NVDA and JAWS on Windows, and VoiceOver on macOS.
