Iced looks extremely nice in terms of visual quality, but I'm concerned about accessibility. I don't see any mention of it elsewhere, so I'm curious if there's any support for accessibility features currently implemented, and if there are future plans for explicitly supporting it? Thanks.

There is no explicit support for accessibility features yet. This is missing, like many other features.
The library is a few months old!

and if there are future plans for explicitly supporting it

I think this is an important feature, and I agree we should at least mention it in the roadmap soon.

I believe the modular architecture could help us greatly here. The iced public API is meant to be high-level, and iced_native is shell-agnostic and renderer-agnostic. The same way we can target the DOM with iced_web, I think we should have enough room to target accessibility APIs, build screen readers, specific shells, etc.

Thanks for the answer! I wasn't trying to rush anything, just glad to see see that it's an issue being considered.

Hopefully the default widgets can have automatic implementations, like with GTK/ATK (but cross platform).
