What we target

This site aims for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance. It's a personal CV and blog, not a web app, so the scope is manageable: static pages, no login, no forms.

What we do

• Full keyboard navigation with visible focus indicators and a skip-to-content link
• Screen reader support: proper heading hierarchy, ARIA labels on interactive elements, live regions for dynamic feedback
• Color contrast ratios above 4.5:1 for all text in all themes
• Reduced motion support: all animations are disabled when prefers-reduced-motion is set
• High contrast mode: the site detects prefers-contrast: more and switches to a high-contrast theme automatically
• Semantic HTML: landmarks, headings, lists, and nav elements used correctly

Known limitations

• Mermaid diagrams in blog posts render as SVGs with a generic "Diagram" label. The visual content of the diagram is not available as text. If you need the information in a diagram, contact me and I'll provide it.
• Some third-party resources (Google Fonts, Alpine.js) are loaded from CDNs I don't control.
