Accessibility statement
Switchify is a product for people with disabilities. The site that sells it has to be exemplary, not adequate.
Standards we target
- WCAG 2.2 AA as a hard floor on every page.
- WCAG AAA contrast for body text, in both light and dark colour modes.
How we test
Every page is verified before deploy with both automated tooling and manual testing:
- axe-core, via Playwright, scans for WCAG violations on every page.
- Lighthouse reports score 100 for accessibility, best practices, and SEO on every page.
- Manual keyboard pass — every interactive element reachable in tab order, with a visible focus ring.
- Manual screen-reader pass (VoiceOver / NVDA) on the most-visited pages.
- 200% browser zoom tested — layout intact, no horizontal scroll.
- 400% reflow tested — content remains readable.
Design choices that matter for accessibility
- Real HTML landmarks —
<header>,<nav>,<main>,<footer>on every page. - The first focusable element on every page is "Skip to main content".
- Sizes in
rem— the site respects your browser's font-size setting. - The FAQ uses native
<details>/<summary>— keyboard-accessible by default. - Minimum interactive target 44 × 44 px, with 8 px of separation between adjacent ones, so the site is usable with a switch.
- A parallel warm-dark colour scheme appears when your OS is set to dark mode — important for users with photophobia or migraine.
- No third-party scripts, no analytics, no tracking — the site loads only what it serves itself.
Known issues
