Description acceptable. The Vinux distribution is a Linux variant that supports one form of this goal. The acronym POUR (“P-O-U-R”) summarizes properties that support this goal, which is aided in HTML by using landmark roles and other ARIA attributes. In plotting packages, using the “viridis” scale over alternatives such as “jet” supports one form of this goal. (10[2])“A,” “double-A,” and “triple-A” guidelines for this goal in web design are laid out (-5[1])in the WCAG recommendations, including contrastive (10[1])link styling (10[1])and (10[1])allowing native keyboard interaction. This goal, which is sometimes written as “A11Y” (“A-one-one-Y”), is supported (10[1])by mobile OS tools including RTT and VoiceOver. (10[1])For 10 points, alt-text (10[1])and audio descriptions are intended to assist what goal (10[1])that includes reducing (10[1])technology barriers for users with disabilities? (10[1])■END■

ANSWER: accessibility [or word forms; or web accessibility; or eAccessibility; accept a11y until read; or answers that indicate improving technology access or usability for specific groups of disabled people, such as being colorblind-friendly or improving visibility or making things easier to see; accept assistive technology, including specific instances such as screen reading; prompt on providing perceptual uniformity; prompt on inclusive practice or inclusivity; prompt on usability]
