ADA & WCAG Web Accessibility - HELP

Featured Replies

Why would you need a widget?

Choose the right theme and follow the guidelines and you will pass the accessibility tests.

This is one area that I've found AI to be useful!

Feed the relevant regulations to a decent LLM. https://www.ada.gov/resources/2024-03-08-web-rule/ & https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG22/ for example. Tell it to thoroughly read everything on those pages.

Attach the source code for the page you want to make compliant, and ask for a full audit with a list of actionable changes.

Repeat until you and the bot are satisfied.

I use https://www.powermapper.com/products/sortsite/ (desktop version) as my primary accessibility checking tool because it analyses the whole site in one sweep, it also evaluates usability, web standards and general errors. Additionally I run the WAVE browser extension and Axe Devtools for quick page checks.

A few things to note about tools like AccessiBe (which I have used in the past)

  • they are horrendously expensive
  • different tools always produce varying results, none are perfect
  • you can't solve accessibility issues with a widget, they merely provide a temporary band-aid
