Accessibility

Built to be usable by everyone.

I want everyone to be able to use this site — with a keyboard, a screen reader, a magnifier, high-contrast mode, or their own text settings. This page is the statement of where the site stands, and it links to the full reports behind that claim so you don't have to take my word for it.

Conformance status

naxatar.com conforms to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, assessed in August 2026 against five representative pages covering every page type and technology on the site — including the WebGL homepage, both forms, the longest documentation page, and the sign-in flow. Site-wide fixes from that audit apply to every page.

This is a self-assessment by the site's developer, not a third-party audit — and the full evaluation record is published below precisely so it can be checked.

The reports

How it was assessed

  • Automated: axe-core across every route in both colour themes, and Lighthouse — against the deployed production site, not just a local build. Currently 0 violations and 100/100 on all routes.
  • Manual: full keyboard traversal, 200% zoom and 320px reflow, WCAG's text-spacing metrics, forced-colors mode, and colour ratios computed from the design tokens directly.
  • Assistive technology: VoiceOver on macOS with Safari — which found a defect nothing else did. NVDA and JAWS were not tested; in their place the accessibility tree was verified identical across the Chromium, WebKit and Gecko engines.
  • Reproducible: the entire test harness is published in the site's repository, so every number in the reports can be re-run.

Known limitations

  • The interactive visual essay at /blog/apollyon-jet-drones-visualized/ is a self-contained document with its own charts. It received the site-wide fixes but its charts have not been fully evaluated, and the conformance report excludes it rather than assumes it.
  • Screen-reader testing covered VoiceOver on macOS only. A criterion verified with one screen reader is verified with one screen reader — the reports say exactly which.
  • One AAA criterion (2.4.12, Focus Not Obscured — Enhanced) does not pass and is outside the Level AA claim; it is recorded in the report rather than omitted.

Feedback

If any part of this site is hard to use with assistive technology, I want to know — that's a bug, and bugs get fixed. Email [email protected] and I'll reply within 24 hours on weekdays.
