Everyone should be able to read this.
Appalachian Host Standard aims to meet WCAG 2.1 AA — here is where we stand and how to reach us.
Everyone should be able to use Appalachian Host Standard — keyboard, screen reader, high zoom or reduced motion. We build to WCAG 2.1 AA and fix shortfalls as we find them.
The basics we hold
- Readable contrast. Colour contrast is checked on every page for normal and large text.
- Clean structure. Semantic headings, landmarks and alt text so assistive tech can follow along.
- Scales cleanly. Text and layout hold up when you zoom in or enlarge the system font.
- Calm motion. Nothing moves that you cannot stop; we respect reduced-motion settings.
