# Accessibility Compliance

Master accessibility implementation to create inclusive experiences that work for everyone, including users with disabilities.

## When to Use This Skill

- Implementing WCAG 2.2 Level AA or AAA compliance
- Building screen reader accessible interfaces
- Adding keyboard navigation to interactive components
- Implementing focus management and focus trapping
- Creating accessible forms with proper labeling
- Supporting reduced motion and high contrast preferences
- Building mobile accessibility features (iOS VoiceOver, Android TalkBack)
- Conducting accessibility audits and fixing violations

## Core Capabilities

### 1. WCAG 2.2 Guidelines

- Perceivable: Content must be presentable in different ways
- Operable: Interface must be navigable with keyboard and assistive tech
- Understandable: Content and operation must be clear
- Robust: Content must work with current and future assistive technologies

### 2. ARIA Patterns

- Roles: Define element purpose (button, dialog, navigation)
- States: Indicate current condition (expanded, selected, disabled)
- Properties: Describe relationships and additional info (labelledby, describedby)
- Live regions: Announce dynamic content changes

### 3. Keyboard Navigation

- Focus order and tab sequence
- Focus indicators and visible focus states
- Keyboard shortcuts and hotkeys
- Focus trapping for modals and dialogs

### 4. Screen Reader Support

- Semantic HTML structure
- Alternative text for images
- Proper heading hierarchy
- Skip links and landmarks

### 5. Mobile Accessibility

- Touch target sizing (44x44dp minimum)
- VoiceOver and TalkBack compatibility
- Gesture alternatives
- Dynamic Type support

## Quick Reference

### WCAG 2.2 Success Criteria Checklist

| Level | Criterion | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| A | 1.1.1 | Non-text content has text alternatives |
| A | 1.3.1 | Info and relationships programmatically determinable |
| A | 2.1.1 | All functionality keyboard accessible |
| A | 2.4.1 | Skip to main content mechanism |
| AA | 1.4.3 | Contrast ratio 4.5:1 (text), 3:1 (large text) |
| AA | 1.4.11 | Non-text contrast 3:1 |
| AA | 2.4.7 | Focus visible |
| AA | 2.5.8 | Target size minimum 24x24px (NEW in 2.2) |
| AAA | 1.4.6 | Enhanced contrast 7:1 |
| AAA | 2.5.5 | Target size minimum 44x44px |

## Key Patterns

### Pattern 1: Accessible Button

```tsx
interface ButtonProps extends React.ButtonHTMLAttributes<HTMLButtonElement> {
  variant?: "primary" | "secondary";
  isLoading?: boolean;
}

function AccessibleButton({
  children,
  variant = "primary",
  isLoading = false,
  disabled,
  ...props
}: ButtonProps) {
  return (
    <button
      // Disable when loading
      disabled={disabled || isLoading}
      // Announce loading state to screen readers
      aria-busy={isLoading}
      // Describe the button's current state
      aria-disabled={disabled || isLoading}
      className={cn(
        // Visible focus ring
        "focus-visible:outline-none focus-visible:ring-2 focus-visible:ring-offset-2",
        // Minimum touch target size (44x44px)
        "min-h-[44px] min-w-[44px]",
        variant === "primary" && "bg-primary text-primary-foreground",
        (disabled || isLoading) && "opacity-50 cursor-not-allowed",
      )}
      {...props}
    >
      {isLoading ? (
        <>
          <span className="sr-only">Loading</span>
          <Spinner aria-hidden="true" />
        </>
      ) : (
        children
      )}
    </button>
  );
}
```
