Notes

Abstract

As an application that supports multiple operating systems (including GNU/Linux, Windows, macOS), LibreOffice needs to implement multiple platform-specific accessibility APIs in order to be accessible for everyone. This talk gives an overview of accessibility APIs on the different systems, which of them LibreOffice currently supports, how it does that, and related aspects and challenges.
