Add ARIA labels to To-Do page - Vanilla

🚀 Goal

Improve the accessibility of the To-Do page in our Vanilla DWA starter by adding appropriate ARIA labels to key elements.

🤔 Background

Adding ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) labels will make our To-Do page more usable for people relying on assistive technologies.

This is part of our larger project to create a Vanilla.js DWA starter. See our main issue here for the full context and list of all related tasks.

Important: For reference, please see the DWA React starter app. While the implementation details will differ for Vanilla, this example provides a good overview of the structure and functionalities of a DWA.

🔑 Tasks and Acceptance Criteria

• Review the current structure of the To-Do page
• Add ARIA labels to the following elements:
  • The main To-Do list container
  • The form for adding new tasks
  • The input field for new task titles
  • The button for adding new tasks
  • Checkboxes for completing tasks
  • Buttons for editing tasks
  • Buttons for deleting tasks
• Ensure all interactive elements are keyboard accessible
• Test the page with a screen reader to verify labels are read correctly
• Update any relevant documentation or comments in the code
