Published in 2021, ARIA in HTML is a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) specification that defines the authoring rules (author conformance requirements) for the use of Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI-ARIA) 1.1 and Digital Publishing WAI-ARIA Module 1.0 attributes on HTML elements.

The primary objective of this specification is to define requirements for use with conformance checking tools used by authors (such as web developers) to aid them in the development of web content (including custom interfaces and widgets) that make use of ARIA to complement or extend the features of HTML (the “host language”).
