Build More Accessible Charting Apps
Section 508 support helps developers deliver JavaScript data visualizations that work more effectively with assistive technologies and accessible interfaces.
Section 508 compliance in JavaScript chart controls means charts provide accessibility features that support the requirements of Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act, helping users with disabilities interact with data visualizations through technologies such as screen readers and keyboard navigation. For developers, this can reduce the effort required to build accessible applications, improve usability for a wider audience, and help software used by U.S. federal agencies and other organizations meet applicable accessibility requirements.
Several JavaScript chart controls offer Section 508 Compliance including:
- Highcharts Core lets you build Section 508-compliant charts with keyboard navigation, screen-reader support, and accessible descriptions for inclusive data visualization experiences.
- DevExtreme React Chart allows you to support Section 508 requirements through keyboard accessibility, ARIA attributes, and accessible interactions within React applications.
- Kendo UI Angular Charts facilitates Section 508 compliance with keyboard navigation, accessibility standards support, and chart functionality designed for assistive technologies.
- AnyChart JS lets you address Section 508 accessibility requirements with accessible chart content, keyboard interaction, and support for assistive technology users.
