An Accessible Frontend Checklist That Ships
A concise accessibility checklist you can apply on every interface without slowing delivery.
Accessibility is quality. It improves UX for everyone and reduces legal and brand risk.
Non-negotiables
- Semantic HTML and heading order
- Visible focus states
- Keyboard operability
- Sufficient contrast
- Meaningful alt text
- Reduced-motion support
Test continuously
Include keyboard passes and screen-reader spot checks in QA. Accessibility regressions are easier to prevent than to rewrite later.
