Accessibility

Usable with a keyboard, a screen reader, or a phone in one hand.

This site, and every site I build, aims at WCAG 2.1 Level AA. In practice that means:

  • Every control can be reached and used with the keyboard, with a visible focus ring
  • Text contrast of at least 4.5:1 on all body text
  • Labels on every form field, and errors described in words
  • Motion is reduced or removed when your device asks for it
  • Pages work at 200% zoom and at phone width without sideways scrolling
  • Images that carry meaning have text alternatives

Ontario businesses with 50 or more employees have a legal duty under the AODA to meet WCAG 2.0 AA on their public websites; smaller businesses do not, but their customers do not care about the threshold. It is built in either way.

Found something that does not work for you? Tell me and it will be fixed on the next update.
