Most images require description for clarity, there are exceptions. This set of notes looks at different situations and contexts where alt text may not be needed and what to do in those cases.

This is incorrect and against the w3c spec. Use role=“presentation” or aria-hidden=“true” if it’s not needed

  The W3C explicitly say that decorative images can have empty alt tags: https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/images/decision-tree/ and https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/images/decorative/
