Accessibility

We aim to make Cursive Atlas usable by as many people as possible, and we build to the principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 level AA.

What we do

• Pages use semantic headings, landmarks and a skip link, and work with a keyboard.
• Interactive controls have visible focus states and accessible names.
• Text and controls meet color-contrast guidelines, and layouts adapt to small screens and larger text sizes.
• Animations respect the reduced-motion setting, and the letters are shown complete without animation.
• Letter graphics have text descriptions, and every stroke is also described in written steps.

Known limitations

• The on-screen tracing pads need a pointer (finger, stylus or mouse), so they cannot be used with a keyboard alone. Each letter also has a printable worksheet and written steps as an alternative.
• The copy-and-paste cursive text uses Unicode symbols that screen readers may read letter by letter. Use the fonts or plain text where that matters.
