Detailed patterns and worked examples

Detailed pattern documentation lives in references/details.md. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient.

Best Practices

Use Semantic HTML: Prefer native elements over ARIA when possible
Test with Real Users: Include people with disabilities in user testing
Keyboard First: Design interactions to work without a mouse
Don’t Disable Focus Styles: Style them, don’t remove them
Provide Text Alternatives: All non-text content needs descriptions
Support Zoom: Content should work at 200% zoom
Announce Changes: Use live regions for dynamic content
Respect Preferences: Honor prefers-reduced-motion and prefers-contrast

Common Issues

Missing alt text: Images without descriptions
Poor color contrast: Text hard to read against background
Keyboard traps: Focus stuck in component
Missing labels: Form inputs without associated labels
Auto-playing media: Content that plays without user initiation
Inaccessible custom controls: Recreating native functionality poorly
Missing skip links: No way to bypass repetitive content
Focus order issues: Tab order doesn’t match visual order

Testing Tools

Automated: axe DevTools, WAVE, Lighthouse
Manual: VoiceOver (macOS/iOS), NVDA/JAWS (Windows), TalkBack (Android)
Simulators: NoCoffee (vision), Silktide (various disabilities)
