Accessibility adjustments on this site
I have designed and developed this site in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) [2.0 / 2.1 / 2.2 - select relevant option] to ensure its accessibility to the level of [A / AA / AAA - select relevant option]. The site's contents have been optimized to work seamlessly with assistive technologies such as screen readers and keyboard navigation.
- To achieve this, I have implemented various accessibility measures, including using the Accessibility Wizard to identify and address potential issues, setting the language of the site, defining clear heading structures, adding descriptive alternative text to images, and ensuring proper color contrast. Additionally, I have minimized the use of motion, made all multimedia content accessible, and optimized the site for keyboard use.
