Semantic structure
Use meaningful headings, landmarks, and control names so that a page is understandable beyond its visual arrangement.
Inclusive interfaces
Interface quality includes the experience of people who navigate, read, or interact differently. This capability concerns structure, input methods, readable presentation, and the conditions needed for an effective review.
01 / SCOPE
Widen the ways a person can use the interface.
Interaction review
Examine keyboard access, focus visibility, the behavior of disclosures, and the information a control communicates when its state changes.
Presentation preferences
Consider text size, contrast, responsive layout, and reduced motion. Preserve the essential information when a decorative effect is unavailable or disabled.
02 / WORKING MATERIAL
What can be
made reviewable.
- A defined review scope
- An issue register with examples
- Annotated interface recommendations
- A retest and unresolved-items record
The final set of deliverables depends on the agreed brief, available content, and implementation responsibilities.
03 / ILLUSTRATIVE BRIEF
A reading page with more than one mode of use.
An essay page may be read with a mouse, a keyboard, enlarged text, or assistive technology. The contents, headings, notes, and links should still have an understandable relationship when the visual arrangement changes.
A review can identify specific barriers and propose corrections. Its scope should name the pages, states, devices, and methods examined. That record is more meaningful than an unsupported badge or a blanket promise about every visitor’s experience.
Illustration only. No customer engagement or performance result is implied.04 / REVIEW QUESTIONS
What should the
material answer?
- Can every essential control be reached without a mouse?
- Does a focus indicator remain visible?
- Is the reading order understandable when the layout changes?
SCOPE BOUNDARY
This capability description is not a claim of certified conformance. A formal accessibility assessment needs an agreed standard, defined scope, appropriate methods, and documented findings.
