Accessibility

Veduta aims to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA on this website and in the web apps (Veduta for the web and Veduta Lite). This page says what was checked, what is known not to work well yet, and how to report a problem.

What was checked

• An automated audit (axe-core, in Chromium) of every page of the website, in the light and dark themes.
• Every page by keyboard alone: the order focus moves in, that the focus can always be seen, and that nothing traps it. A "Skip to the content" link comes first on every page.
• The contrast of every text colour on every background, worked out from the colours themselves: at least 4.5 to 1 for text and 3 to 1 for controls and focus rings.
• Screen widths from a phone (390 pixels) to a desktop (1440), and zoom to 200%, with nothing cut off and no sideways scrolling.
• "Reduce motion" (in your system's settings): the scroll-driven drawings then change in steps without moving, and nothing slides or springs.

Known limits

• The charts are drawings. Each has a description, and the numbers that matter are written out next to it (the readout under the "Try it" fan, the record table on the method page), but the drawings themselves cannot be explored point by point.
• The tour of the app's pages is a drawing that is hidden from screen readers, because the text beside it says the same thing.
• If the feedback page uses a Google Form, that form is Google's, and its accessibility is up to Google. The "Open the form on Google's site" link and the email address in the footer are alternatives.
• The site has not yet been tested by hand with a screen reader. Reports from people who use one are especially welcome.
• The desktop app is separate and has its own accessibility work; problems with it can be reported in the same way.

Reporting a problem

Say which page, what you were trying to do and what happened (and which browser or assistive technology, if you know). Use the feedback page, or write to whoisgetlost@gmail.com.

Veduta is a free, non-commercial project. It follows WCAG because it should work for everyone, whether or not a law requires it.
