Epic 14 — Accessibility & Internationalization

Goal: Make CalcPad usable by everyone regardless of ability, language, or locale.

Story 14.1: Screen Reader Support

As a visually impaired user, I want CalcPad to work with screen readers on every platform, So that I can perform calculations with the same efficiency as sighted users.

Acceptance Criteria:

Given the macOS native application When VoiceOver is enabled and the user navigates the sheet Then every input line has an accessibilityLabel that reads the expression text And every result has an accessibilityLabel that reads the computed value with its unit And error states are announced (e.g., "Line 5: error, division by zero")

Given the Windows application built with iced When a screen reader using UI Automation is active Then all input fields, results, buttons, and menus expose proper UI Automation properties (Name, Role, Value) And the user can navigate lines, hear results, and interact with menus entirely through the screen reader

Given the web application When a screen reader (NVDA, JAWS, or VoiceOver for web) is active Then all interactive elements have appropriate ARIA roles and labels And the result column uses aria-live="polite" so updated results are announced without interrupting the user And navigation landmarks are defined for the editor area, sidebar, and toolbar

Given any platform When the user adds, removes, or reorders lines Then the screen reader announces the change (e.g., "Line inserted after line 4" or "Line 7 deleted")
