However, WCAG requirements can be intimidating to wade through for novices and experts alike. With a number of compliance levels, principles, guidelines, and success criteria, developers and other stakeholders sometimes struggle with keeping all of the WCAG requirements straight and determining what is truly necessary for compliance.

EXCERPT

What is WCAG?

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, or WCAG, is a set of guidelines for making digital content accessible for all users, including those with disabilities. WCAG was developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) nearly 30 years ago.

WCAG has been continuously developed and updated, and has a few different versions. In this eBook, we will primarily focus on the two most relevant standards: WCAG 2.0 and WCAG 2.1. These standards are most frequently referenced in laws and legal settlements across the world as the baseline for web accessibility.
