# Accessibility

Source: https://jonleverrier.com/accessibility

Whether you use a keyboard, a screen reader or just prefer things to sit still, you should be able to find what you need without a fight.

I've spent 25 years making websites, and I still don't think accessibility is a box to tick. It's part of doing the job properly.

## Accessibility features

### Access keys

Access keys are keyboard shortcuts for the main navigation:

How you trigger them depends on your browser:

Not every browser supports access keys, sadly. That's out of my hands.

### Semantic HTML

Pages use proper semantic elements, such as header, main, article and footer, so screen readers know what's what.

### Headings

Every page starts with a single H1, and the headings below it follow a logical order.

### Colour contrast

Colours meet WCAG AA contrast levels as a minimum.

### Screen readers

I've added ARIA labels where they're needed. Embedded content from third parties has a title attribute, so screen readers get some context.

### Images and media

Images and media have text alternatives, so nobody misses out on what they show.

### Reduced motion

If you've switched on "reduce motion" in your device settings, animations won't play.

## Let me know if something's not right

I'm always improving this site, but I'm only human and I will get things wrong. If anything is hard to use, or you've got an idea that would make it better, please [get in touch](https://jonleverrier.com/contact).
