Accessible Map

[KellyHutchins]

We created a demo app to start exploring ideas around making the map accessible. 

A11y Map 

We'd love if you could take some time to explore the demo map and provide us feedback on the process. If you are a developer you can access the source code on GitHub.

I really like this. thank you. However i am having some problems implementing it.

when i download the app from github, unpackage it, move to my websever, and try to access it the page doesnt load, it just spins.

Example

Im think i am just not changing the right setting in one of the JSON files. if this is the case where and what am i am  changing.

Then how do i configure it to work with my data?

[KellyHutchins]

It looks like it is missing some of the files that are installed via npm. In order to get it to work you'll need to setup Node and NPM if you haven't already done so. Once node and npm are set up navigate to the app directory in a terminal and enter npm install.

This app looks good as a starting point, however I have not been able to compile it due to coding errors. Have you got and read me doco on getting started with this code as a base?

[KellyHutchins]

What type of compile errors are you seeing?

Could you please create a simple example like the sample maps on your JavascriptAPI web pages?

e.g. Load a basic WebMap | ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.12

The problem with creating a simple sample is that the accessibility portion isn't currently a widget so the app includes the logic for that. At some point we'll create a widget based on the logic that you can then add to your app.

Ok thanks. So far I've only found a GoogleMaps Javascript API sample for accessibility.
