Learn what an accessible name is, where browsers get it from (aria-labelledby, aria-label, labels, alt text, content, title), how to write good names, and why the visible label must be part of the name. Includes a live name calculator, a page name audit, and a short drill.
Learn when and how to use aria-label: naming icon-only buttons, search fields, repeated landmarks, and SVG images; when not to use it (elements that cannot be named, visible text that already works); the Label in Name rule; and how to write short, unique, translatable labels. Includes a name override lab, a label writing practice, and a live aria-label audit.
Learn how aria-labelledby names an element from text that is already on the page: naming dialogs and sections from their headings, building names from several pieces, making repeated buttons unique, how hidden text and self-reference work, and why unique ids matter. Includes a name builder lab, a duplicate id lab, and a live aria-labelledby checker.
