ARIA Authoring Practices, Alert pattern: https://goo.gl/8ZnyAH

In previous episodes we covered how to get up and running using screen readers but one question I've seen come up is how do I tell a screen reader user about new content that I've added to the page dynamically, such as an alert? Today on the show we'll cover the very basics of the alert role and touch on the topic of ARIA live regions. By the end you should be able to create your first alert that works well in VoiceOver and NVDA!
