How to get feedback on visually-impaired accessibility for web apps? (mbin.grits.dev)

Hello! I'm making changes to a web app that involves some aria classes, and I read the docs about how they work, but I'm not real confident in my ability to construct them into something that produces a well-usable experience for someone who's using the app. Is there a good way to get direct feedback from someone who uses a screenreader, or otherwise get some evaluation on whether what I've fumbled together is actually functioning well?

By far the best first step you can take is to try it yourself. Follow a ten-minute tutorial on how to use one (Rob Dodson has good introductions, such as this one on VoiceOver - this is really a case where videos work best to learn), and then see if you can manage to navigate your web app using it. Ideally even with your screen turned away, but that's probably too had at first, and also makes it hard to see what's going wrong.
