Accessibility

Our goal

My crew and I want everyone to be able to use this site, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard, voice control, zoom or high-contrast settings. We build it to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA.

What we built in

• Every page works with a keyboard. Focus is always visible and never hidden behind the header or the call bar.
• Text and buttons meet the contrast guidelines in light and dark mode.
• Buttons and links are big enough to tap, and the main ones are at least 44 pixels tall.
• Animation stops when your device asks for reduced motion, and nothing on the site flashes.
• Every tool has a written version on the page that works without JavaScript.
• The 3D guides have a full written parts list, so the 3D view is never the only way to get the answer.
• Photos have descriptions. Links that open a new tab say so to screen readers.

What we checked

On October 15, 2026 every page was checked with an automated probe built on axe-core (WCAG 2.2 A and AA), a full keyboard walk with a visible-focus test, checks for focus hidden behind the header and call bar, target size, text spacing, 400 percent zoom reflow, forced colors, reduced motion and flashing, at phone and desktop sizes, plus axe-core in light and dark mode.

Not yet tested: a full pass with VoiceOver on an iPhone or NVDA on Windows, and testing with people who have disabilities. Automated checks find only part of what the guidelines cover, so we don’t claim the site is fully accessible.

Known limits

• The 3D models need WebGL and are hard to use without sight or fine motor control. The written parts list under each model has the same information, so you never need the 3D view.
• The wheel, brake, alignment and battery pictures are illustrations. Each one has a written equivalent that says the same thing, and every control works from the keyboard.
• The tide-line gauge at the top of the page, the dolphins that leap across the screen, the garage-door picture and the dash dials are decoration or illustration. Anything they show is also written in text, and motion turns off if your device asks for less of it.
• The shop tour uses real photos with a text description for each. The dolphin hunt and the memory game can be played from the keyboard, and the tour’s written steps read in order if scripts are off.
