Any super digital accessibility gurus out there?

by Hafsa Qadeer

Could use real advice and conversation about a new product just recently introduced to the market - if you understand digital inclusion and accessibility, we need to talk!

    I'm not a guru of any kind, but if you want to build accessible websites:

    • Prefer server-rendered HTML over Single Page Applications (SPA).
    • Use semantic HTML tags. Don't create a div soup.
    • Have a proper contrast. Insert your background and foreground colors into a contrast tool to see where you stand. Aim for Level AAA. "WCAG Level AAA requires a contrast ratio of at least 7:1 for normal text and 4.5:1 for large text".
    • Use alt text for images. If the image/SVG only serves as a decoration, use either empty alt attribute or the aria-hidden attribute.

    That should get you 90% there.

      That is very cool advice! I am using a toolkit that helps with the contrast but all other advice noted. Check out the toolkit and share your thoughts if you have time: www.inclusive.ae :) Would love to hear feedback!
