Designing for Accessibility: A Complete Guide
Learn the essential principles of accessible design and how to create inclusive digital experiences that work for everyone.
Designing with accessibility in mind ensures your products are usable by everyone, regardless of ability. Inclusive design improves user satisfaction and helps businesses meet legal and ethical responsibilities.
1. Visual Accessibility
Proper color contrast, legible fonts, and scalable layouts make content readable for users with visual impairments. Tools like Stark and Lighthouse help validate accessibility compliance.
2. Keyboard and Screen Reader Support
Ensure that all interactive elements — buttons, forms, and navigation — are fully usable via keyboard. ARIA labels and semantic HTML help screen readers interpret the interface correctly.
Accessibility isn't a feature — it’s a foundation of good design that benefits everyone.
