\nABOUT WEB ACCESSIBILITY
\n \;
\nWeb accessibility is essentially a set of rules\, behaviors\, code standards\, and design guidelines that were created by the W3C and are called the WCAG 2.1.
\n \;
\nThe WCAG 2.1 is a massive 1\,000-page guidebook that encapsulates a range of disabilities that go from hindering internet use to making internet use impossible without adjustments. This spectrum actually comprises 20-25% of the general population depending on if we'\;re going with the CDC or WHO.
\nThere are many disabilities covered\, and the primary categories that require attention are:\;\n\n

blind people using screen-readers\,
the motor-impaired using only the keyboard to navigate\,
epilepsy\, color blindness\,
cognitive and learning disabilities\,
visual impairments\, and more.

\n There are legal implications to these requirements and we will cover if they apply to you and how you can navigate them easily.
