Accessibility

Lila is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We continually improve the user experience for everyone and apply the relevant accessibility standards.

Conformance Status

This portfolio website aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities and more user-friendly for everyone.

Accessibility Features

  • Keyboard navigation: All interactive elements are accessible via keyboard (Tab, Enter, Space, Escape).
  • Screen reader support: Semantic HTML, ARIA labels, and roles are used throughout to ensure compatibility with screen readers.
  • Color contrast: Text meets WCAG AA contrast ratios against background colors in both light and dark themes.
  • Resizable text: Text scales properly when browser zoom is used up to 200%.
  • Focus indicators: Visible focus outlines on all interactive elements.
  • Reduced motion: Respects the prefers-reduced-motion media query for users who prefer minimal animation.
