Description

bug good first issue hacktoberfest

On the leaderboard page (https://oss.codercops.com/leaderboard/2026-10), every row has a Card pill that opens that person's share card, and all 47 of them are named just "Card". The person's name is only in the title (title="bhushan4work's share card"), and screen readers treat a title as a description, not the name. So a screen reader's list of links shows 47 links called "Card", with no way to tell whose is whose.

What to do

  • Give the link aria-label="<login>'s share card", the same text as the title. The visible word "Card" stays part of the name, which is what WCAG's "label in name" asks for.

Where to look

  • src/page.ts, line 200 (the cardlink link in leaderboardPage)
  • test/page.test.ts, the leaderboardPage tests (from line 78)

Acceptance criteria

  • Each Card link's accessible name says whose card it opens and still contains "Card"
  • A test that fails on the current code
  • npm run typecheck and npm test pass
