To make accessibility easier to implement in your websites, you have to be familiar with Web Accessibility Initiative's Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI ARIA) or simply called ARIA.

HTML provides the structure, content and layout, CSS adds style and design, and JavaScript adds functionality and interactivity.
