Accessibility
I take accessibility seriously. I want every visitor to my website to have the best possible experience of browsing my website. Therefore, I strive to design this website to be accessible, including to disabled and neurodivergent people, by aiming to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA standards.
High-level overview of the accessibility features of this site:
- Responsive design and mobile-friendly layout.
- Semantic HTML, enhanced by Web Accessibility Initiative – Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI-ARIA).
- Sufficient colour contrast between text and background colours.
- Alt text for all non-decorative images.
- Keyboard navigation-friendly: Every interactive element can be focused and interacted with keyboard buttons, with visible outline when focused.
- Logical content and heading flow.
- Links to skip to the main content or the top of the page.
- Sufficient font size that can be enlarged without breaking the site layout.
- No autoplaying audio or video.
I use the following tools to test my site for accessibility:
- axe DevTools - Web Accessibility Testing browser extension
- WebAIM's WAVE Browser Extension
- Alex Clapperton's Colour Contrast Checker
- NVDA screen reader for Windows
- TalkBack screen reader for Android
In addition, I test the accessibility of my website manually by navigating with keyboard alone.
Feedbacks and suggestions for improving the accessibility of this website are welcome. Feel free to contact me for it.
