About

ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) is a technical specification from the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative that defines how to improve the accessibility of web content and applications, particularly those with dynamic interfaces and custom controls.

It provides a set of roles and properties that can be added to HTML to describe user interface elements, their relationships, and current states, enabling assistive technologies such as screen readers to interpret widgets, live updates, and complex interactions that are not natively accessible.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, language-independent data exchange format derived from JavaScript and used to structure and transmit data between systems.

It represents data as key-value pairs and ordered arrays, supports various data types, and is widely used in web APIs, configuration files, and data storage.
