What's the status on making SortableJs accessible? #1951
Description
Activity
Ditto, this seems like it'd be a great addition, and in 2023 totally handwaving a11y support as a non-starter seems unwise.
Reacted by James Clarke, Sean, Joshua Cool, Jacob Martella and Vincent RubinettiJust asking whomever is reading this: hypothetically, would you or your organization be able to sponsor development for making SortableJS accessible. At least having keyboard shortcuts for sorting could be fantastic for all users, disabled and abled alike.
@jjroelofs I would like to work on making this library accessible. Can I raise a PR for that?
As we are struggeling with the EU regulation to implement a11y - especially for drag & drop - I'd love to see this implemented @makafsal 👍 .
The W3C WCAG already defined criteria to achieve accessible drag and drop movements: https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/Understanding/dragging-movements

Hi
I read #1176 from 2017 and the answer was a clear no, no intention to make this library accessible or at least operated through keyboard.
I could not find any mention of accessibility or keyboard operation in the current documentation so I'd like to know what is the current stance on this?
Many thanks
