Microsoft had decided to make all technology to be WCAG 2.1 compliant. However, I was unable to locate any accessibility features' documentation for Blazor.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/?view=aspnetcore-5.0

I am specifically looking to understand how to invoke the Edge-native screen reader using a button on a Blazor web assembly web page.

    Hi @Ayan Mullick

    I understand that you want to invoke Edge Read aloud in your Blazor app. You can't directly use this feature in your app as Edge doesn't make the API of this feature public.

    If you want to invoke Read aloud, I suggest that you can raise a feature request in Edge Insider.

    Thanks for your understanding.
