Description

C = compliance/meets all Microsoft Accessibility Standards. B = user-friendly experience for all.

The critical step here will be onboarding to have gallery tested through inclusive usability studies and acting on any feedback to ensure that RNW Gallery is "user friendly as defined by user feedback from people with disabilities confirming the product experience provides satisfaction, efficiency, and an intuitive experience."

Next steps are:

  • Address #231
  • Address #293
  • Address #294
  • Address #228
  • Get tested and confirm as resolved the leftover issues still open in ADO
  • Onboard for usability studies and Grade B grading
  • Address feedback from ^ (will open specific issues and link here once we know what the work is)

Research direction

Start by reviewing the checklist items #231, #293, #294, and #228, then identify the remaining open ADO issues for RNW Gallery. The work is complete only after those issues are addressed, inclusive usability studies are completed, and feedback from people with disabilities is acted on until Grade B is confirmed.
