According to the Font Awesome home page:
Font Awesome won't trip up screen readers, unlike other icon fonts.
I also know that it is recommended to add the aria-hidden="true"
attribute to font icons so that screen readers can ignore them.
My question is, what does Font-Awesome do that "won't trip up screen readers" (I had a look on their GitHub site and I can't find anything) and do I still need to add the aria-hidden="true"
attribute?
