Hi,
Thanks for this answer, Quentin. I have one more question. Does Electron act 
the same way as nw.js when someone creates an application using it?

Thanks.

Jim

Hello,

The most important thing to remember with NW.js is that Jaws and NVDA threat it 
like a browser: you can use navigation such as H to jump to next heading, etc. 
Using ARIA you have the  tools to do something perfectly accessible.

However, it can also be a problem. With Jaws, the virtual cursor is 
automatically reactivated each time you alt+tab into the application. If you 
thought on doing something that can be navigated using regular tab/shift+tab, 
people that aren't used to web browsers will be quickly lost.

For that reason, whether it's a good solution or not also depens on the target 
audience
