Accessible calendar
There is an accessible display variant for the "Calendar" element called "Appointment overview (accessible)". It contains hidden elements that are only accessible to screen readers. In these elements, date formats are readable for screen readers. A screen reader-only button that can be used to create a new appointment is also available.
