Improve the accessibility of your website

How its started

A few weeks ago, during my training to get the web developer diploma. I had to work on accessibility on the Internet. ♿

Being buddy with the W3C and all the tools that are necessary to make the website accessible by anyone.

So I read up, and downloaded tools like Wave, headingsMap, Colorblindly.

That, by the way, you can find the Wave extension on the banner of this article. 😄

The problem

When I did tests on my personal website, a lot of issues regarding contrast in text and colors. Undefined link icons with aria-label, errors regarding the title level being skipped. Anyway, it was not good. So I improved it by fixing all these problems.

Fixing concerns with the right tools

To determine where I had problems, most of the time I used Wave, a free extension available everywhere that scans your page and shows you the errors.
