Re: Do native HTML date pickers automatically fail SC 1.4.4 (Resize Text)?

Hi there, I know it's probably not the point you're trying to make but in
your Codepen example, the hint text for the date format will probably not
be read out by screen readers like NVDA and Jaws. The user will be in
'Forms' mode and the text is not linked to the input.

Use of aria-describedby to link the format information to the input would
help here.
