ATAG (Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines)

The Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) are standards designed to ensure that software used to create digital content, like websites, is accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. They aim to make authoring tools easy to use, providing features that support accessible content creation, such as keyboard navigation and compatibility with assistive technologies. By following ATAG, developers ensure their tools help creators produce content that is accessible, promotes inclusivity, and meets legal or organizational accessibility requirements. Overall, ATAG helps make the digital world more accessible by improving the tools used to build online content.
