However, provided that these have been implemented correctly, it should be perfectly possible to create websites and applications with Bootstrap that fulfill [<abbr title="Web Content Accessibility Guidelines">WCAG</abbr> 2.0](https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/) (A/AA/AAA), [Section 508](https://www.section508.gov/) and similar accessibility standards and requirements. + +### Structural markup + +Bootstrap's styling and layout can be applied to a wide range of markup structures. This documentation aims to provide developers with best practice examples to demonstrate the use of Bootstrap itself and illustrate appropriate semantic markup, including ways in which potential accessibility concerns can be addressed. + +### Interactive components + +Bootstrap's interactive components—such as modal dialogs, dropdown menus and custom tooltips—are designed to work for touch, mouse and keyboard users. Through the use of relevant [<abbr title="Web Accessibility Initiative">WAI</abbr>-<abbr title="Accessible Rich Internet Applications">ARIA</abbr>](https://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/aria) roles and attributes, these components should also be understandable and operable using assistive technologies (such as screen readers). + +Because Bootstrap's components are purposely designed to be fairly generic, authors may need to include further <abbr title="Accessible Rich Internet Applications">ARIA</abbr> roles and attributes, as well as JavaScript behavior, to more accurately convey the precise nature and functionality of their component. This is usually noted in the documentation. + +### Color contrast + +Most colors that currently make up Bootstrap's default palette—used throughout the framework for things such as button variations, alert variations, form validation indicators—lead to *insufficient* color contrast (below the recommended [WCAG 2.0 color contrast ratio of 4.5:1](https://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/visual-audio-contrast-contrast.html)) when used against a light background. Authors will need to manually modify/extend these default colors to ensure adequate color contrast ratios. + +### Visually hidden content + +Content which should be visually hidden, but remain accessible to assistive technologies such as screen readers, can be styled using the `.sr-only` class. This can be useful in situations where additional visual information or cues (such as meaning denoted through the use of color) need to also be conveyed to non-visual users. + +{% highlight html %} +<p class="text-danger"> + <span class="sr-only">Danger: </span> + This action is not reversible +</p> +{% endhighlight %} + +For visually hidden interactive controls, such as traditional "skip" links, `.sr-only` can be combined with the `.sr-only-focusable` class. This will ensure that the control becomes visible once focused (for sighted keyboard users). + +{% highlight html %} +<a class="sr-only sr-only-focusable" href="#content">Skip to main content</a> +{% endhighlight %} + +### Reduced motion + +Bootstrap includes support for the [`prefers-reduced-motion` media feature](https://drafts.csswg.org/mediaqueries-5/#prefers-reduced-motion). In browsers/environments that allow the user to specify their preference for reduced motion, most CSS transition effects in Bootstrap (for instance, when a modal dialog is opened or closed) will be disabled. Currently, support is limited to Safari on macOS and iOS. + +## Additional resources + +- [Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0](https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/) +- [The A11Y Project](https://a11yproject.com/) +- [MDN accessibility documentation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility) +- [Tenon.io Accessibility Checker](https://tenon.io/) +- [Colour Contrast Analyser (CCA)](https://developer.paciellogroup.com/resources/contrastanalyser/) +- ["HTML Codesniffer" bookmarklet for identifying accessibility issues](https://github.com/squizlabs/HTML_CodeSniffer) |
