I couldn't recommend Google Devs Youtube playlist on accessibility enough. They've worked hard on explaining each part as simply as possible

+1 this playlist!

Also, accessibility is not a field that stands on its own--it's integrated into all parts of your stack (HTML, CSS, JS; whatever framework/library you use). If you want somewhere practical to start, you can run your projects/websites through Lighthouse or web.dev audit and see your accessibility score. It will give you recommendations on things you can improve.

I've used Lighthouse a bit and I have the axe plugin which has helped a bit but it's something I know I need a better understanding of. Multiple links to that playlist it looks great I will have a watch thanks.
