Hi Rob,

Greetings

I am with you, if you develop some widgets please share this with me as a
volunteer I love to test this and will give you an accessibility feedback
including its UX.
I trust and believe Good UX should be the goal for any development
/implementation. Our goal is to give a good experience to all our
users—that includes people with disabilities. you can reach to me directly
on my mail ID <EMAIL REMOVED>

I hope you like the idea.


Best wishes
