About this plugin
This free plugin is intended to help you make your website more accessible.
It is responsive and works on desktop computers & mobile devices
You can dock the accessibility panel to any of the 4 sides in desktops and to 2 sides in mobile devices
The accessibility panel opens from an toggle icon that can be set to any of the 4 corners from the admin option panel
All the icons have a keyboard shortcut so you can control the accessibility from the keyboard even with the accessibility panel hidden
