SUMMARY:What Your Design Doesn’t Say: Giving AI the Accessibility Context
  It Doesn’t Have
URL:https://www.deque.com/axe-con/sessions/what-our-design-doesnt-say-givin
 g-ai-the-accessibility-context-it-doesnt-have/
DESCRIPTION:A combobox is the component where every team ends up with opini
 ons. The native options\, a select or an input with a datalist\, don't cov
 er what most design systems need\, so someone has to decide which keys ope
 n the list\, what Escape does\, where focus goes\, and what a screen reade
 r announces as you arrow through the options. Those decisions rarely make 
 it into the design file\, which means an AI generating the component makes
  them for you.This talk follows one combobox through three layers of conte
 xt\, built live: annotations for the keyboard controls and for how the lis
 t opens and closes\, non-visual properties for roles\, states\, and access
 ible names\, and guidelines that set org-wide rules before the component's
  own. Then we hand it to an AI\, from design to code and back\, and see wh
 ether it follows your decisions or makes up its own.No particular setup or
  accessibility background needed. You'll leave with a pattern you can reus
 e on the next component at your own org.
