Accessibility
GougeProof is built to work with a keyboard, a screen reader and a phone, in a light and a dark theme.

Our goal
We build to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. We have not yet had an outside audit, so we do not claim full conformance.
What we do
- Every page has one main heading, landmarks, and a skip link that jumps past the header.
- The calculator can be used with the keyboard alone, with a visible focus ring that is never hidden under a pinned bar.
- The result is announced to screen readers after you stop typing, and the other changes on the sheet are announced too.
- The pages reflow to a narrow phone screen without sideways scrolling, apart from wide tables, which scroll inside themselves and can be reached by keyboard.
- Colours meet contrast requirements in both the light and the dark theme, and you can pick a theme with the switch in the header.
- Motion is reduced when your device asks for that.
- Automated checks run against the pages in both themes and at desktop and phone widths before each release, and we test the keyboard route through the calculator.
- We use no accessibility overlay or widget, and we never will.
What automated checks miss
Automated checks find only some problems. If something does not work for you, tell us and we will fix it.
