Summary
Daily aims to build video and audio APIs that work for everyone, focusing on accessibility features such as making UIs keyboard-accessible, adding skip links in navigation bars, special treatment of "hidden" elements, using semantic HTML, removing focus traps, avoiding keyboard traps, and optimizing site performance. The company uses web accessibility guidelines from the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) to ensure its products meet the goals set out by web accessibility standards. By implementing these features, Daily aims to make its UIs accessible to everyone, regardless of barriers such as disability, geography, language, device restrictions, and more.
