The a11y in just about every visual builder for WordPress, Gutenberg block set, etc. is severely lacking.
For Breakdance 1.2 we are going to do a complete accessibility audit on every single one of our components and improve accessibility - i.e. focus states, keyboard nav, aria, skip links, etc. etc. etc.
Regardless of whether this gets upvoted or whether only 2% of users actually care, we are doing this.

Hi Louis, is there a list somewhere of all these accessibility features that I can pass on to my accessibility consultant? It would be good to get US accessibility experts such as Dr Belo Cipriani, who currently uses Divi for his website, on board, perhaps by doing a BD vs Divi accessibility comparison chart.

We just shipped Breakdance 1.3 with the promised A11Y improvements and more, including: enhancements for menu builder keyboard nav, FAQ, search forms, forms in general, ability to set attributes like aria-label on links/buttons that are part of other elements, and much more.
We're not aware of other open A11Y issues in Breakdance at the present time, but if you are, please tell us! Open a specific issue about it and we'll get it done.
Thanks all for voting on this!

Much needed. We can't rank more in Google PageSpeed witout more accesibility options from the builder.

When can we expect this to see in effect. As I am planning to use breakdance for creating a fully accessible website soon for one of my client.

Cool, accessibility will become a standard practice for all web apps very soon. Already all the European Union-related programs demand it

Really looking forward to this!

Is there a chance that accessibility will be included in the final 1.2 version?

Seeing this on the roadmap is one of the things that convinced me to sign up for a yearly subscription to Breakdance. It is one of the things I have always been hesitant/uncertain about when building my sites with Oxygen. I am excited to see some updates regarding the progress made with this.
