Accessibility

1. Contrasting colours:
   • Make sure there is enough contrast between the text and the background to make it easy to read. This is especially important for people with visual impairments or reading difficulties.
2. Form labels:
   • Attach clear, descriptive labels to all form fields. This helps users understand the function of each field and improves the experience for people using screen readers.
3. Keyboard navigation:
   • Verify that all site functions are keyboard accessible. Users should be able to navigate and use your site without relying on the mouse.
4. Headings and semantic structure:
   • Use headers (<h1>, <h2>etc.) in a logical and hierarchical way to structure your content. This makes it easier to navigate and understand the content, especially for screen reader users.
5. Image descriptions:
   • Add attributes alt to all images to provide meaningful descriptions. This is essential for those who rely on screen readers.
6. Adaptable text:
   • Ensure that text can be scaled without losing legibility. This benefits visually impaired users who may need to increase the size of the text.
7. Descriptive links:
   • Use descriptive link text instead of "click here" or generic links. This helps users understand the function of the link, especially when navigating with screen readers.
8. Accessibility testing:
   • Perform accessibility testing using tools such as Google Chrome's Lighthouse or WAVE to identify potential problems and fix them.
9. Compliance with standards:
   • Make sure your website complies with the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines).
10. Transcripts and subtitles:
    • If you have multimedia content, such as videos, provide transcripts and subtitles to make it accessible to people with hearing disabilities.

Remember that web accessibility is an ongoing process, and it is important to test regularly to ensure that your site remains accessible as updates are made.
