English abstract

Data literacy is a key element of information literacy. In a context where more and more sectors are making use of data visualization, it is essential to incorporate accessibility into the design of these resources to ensure access to information for all citizens. The aim of this paper is to introduce the Highcharts library for creating data visualizations. The installation process, the creation of a simple chart, and the integration of multiple accessibility features are shown.
