Accessibility Tip: ARIA role button

If you do your element clickable then add attribute role="button" to tell screen reader that the element is a button. This is useful especially for element A where we want to tell that this is a button, not a link. Read more on MDN.

Note: Windows Narrator on Windows 7 doesn’t read web content inside the browsers.

   If you want a button, then use and style it! 🙂

   Not sure if button can be used outside of form.
