Even though this website is primarily meant to be my own space of self-expression, I also want every visitor to my website to have the best possible experience of browsing my website. Accessibility is also relevant to me as a disabled and neurodivergent person.
Therefore, I strive to design my website to be accessible, including to fellow disabled and neurodivergent people, by aiming to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA standards.
Accessibility Features
#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, occasionally accompanied with longer image descriptions
- 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
This site uses the Lexend font family as the default font and Intel One Mono as the monospaced font to improve text readability.
Testing
#I use the following tools to test my site for accessibility:
- WebAIM's WAVE Browser Extension
- axe DevTools - Web Accessibility Testing 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.
Feedback
#Feedback from disabled and neurodivergent people are welcome. You can [contact me via email](mailto:contact@leilukin.example.com) for feedbacks and suggestions for improving the accessibility of this site.
