Accessibility
Built to be usable by everyone.
UPWARD Signals is designed and built to broadly align with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. We treat accessibility as part of the craft of listening: if a participant can't comfortably take a survey, we haven't really heard them.
What we do
- Semantic HTML with a single
<main>landmark and a logical heading hierarchy on every page. - All interactive elements are reachable and operable by keyboard, with visible focus indicators.
- Buttons and links have descriptive, screen-reader-friendly labels; icon-only controls carry
aria-labels. - Form fields are programmatically associated with visible labels, and errors are announced in plain language.
- Color is never the sole means of conveying information; text meets AA contrast against its background.
- Images include meaningful
alttext, or are marked decorative when appropriate. - Motion and animation respect the user's
prefers-reduced-motionsetting. - Tap targets on touch devices meet the 44×44 px minimum.
Known limitations
Accessibility is ongoing work. If you encounter a barrier, please tell us — we treat accessibility reports as bugs and prioritize them accordingly.
