Neurrone opened a new pull request #1198: Improve Accessibility for screen reader users
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton/pull/1198
 
 
   Fixes #1197.
   
   ## Overview
   
   Improve accessibility by adding missing labels and using appropriate roles.
   
   [x] Navigation menu: ensure that nav links are always labelled for screen readers, regardless of whether they are visually minimized. Add labels and roles for the minimize toggle button.
   [x] Make screen readers read incoming notifications, add some missing labels in the notifications panel
   [x] render notifications in a labelled <aside> instead of a <span>
   
   ## Testing recommendations
   
   Run NVDA with Firefox and connect to a fauxton instance.
