Most accessibility failures are hidden ⚠️, keyboard navigation, screen reader structure, form logic & interaction design. These unnoticed gaps often lead to compliance risks and legal notices.

With Accesstive, risks aren’t assumed, they’re identified, validated & documented ✅

Because 95.9% of homepages still fail WCAG 2.2 AA standards, even when they “look fine.”

I've been using the WAVE Evaluation Tool (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/wave-evaluation-tool/jbbplnpkjmmeebjpijfedlgcdilocofh) for accessibility testing for a while now. It gives you an "AIM Score" (https://wave.webaim.org/aimscore) that you can fix on the page, and it doesn't require the page to be accessible on the internet. I like that.

Effective today, the theme accessibility-ready guidelines have been updated. The new guidelines more closely adhere to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) expectations, although it continues to be the case that WCAG does not apply directly to themes; #WCAG is a measurement for content, and themes are only a wrapper for your content. Learn about the new accessibility-ready guidelines.

Accessibility and sustainability aren’t competing goals.

Build lean → works for more people.

Build for more people → you tend to build lean.

They pull in the same direction. Always.
