About accessible names
The accessible name is the label assistive technology announces for a control.
It is computed from a fixed order of sources: aria-labelledby,
then aria-label, then native markup such as <label>
and alt, then the element’s own content, and finally
placeholder and title. This tool follows the WAI-ARIA
Accessible Name and Description Computation for common controls and explains
every step, so it can double as a quick teaching aid.
