Hey everybody,

jamovi is an Electron app (like e.g. MS Teams), which means it's 
basically a webpage wrapped in a very thin browser (kind of). This means 
the screenreader potential should be considerable - if Electron supports 
that. I can put your colleague in touch with the jamovi developers if 
they want? I'm sure they'd like to fix any inaccessibility issues (I 
don't check this email account often; if you would like me to do 
something, maybe better to mail me at gjalt-jorn.peters at ou.nl).

Kind regards,

Gjalt-Jorn
