Accessibility Patterns

A compact web accessibility reference covering WCAG 2.2 AA criteria, ARIA patterns, keyboard navigation and axe-core testing.

Design & UIIntermediate★ 526⑂ 44AI score 7/10Last updated: Aug 8, 2026

What it does

  • WCAG 2.2 AA criteria tables: Perceivable / Operable / Understandable rules with success-criterion numbers (alt text, 4.5:1 contrast, visible focus, 24×24px target size, etc.).
  • Correct ARIA snippets: dialog (role="dialog", aria-modal), tabs (role="tablist"), and live regions (aria-live) — the markup teams most often get wrong.
  • Keyboard navigation: a ready-to-paste React useFocusTrap hook for modals and dialogs.
  • Skip links & motion: skip-to-content pattern plus a prefers-reduced-motion CSS block.
  • Testing & checklist: npx @axe-core/cli and Lighthouse audit commands, a 10-item pre-ship checklist, and a list of common anti-patterns.

Who it's for

  • Frontend developers working in React/Next.js or plain HTML/CSS
  • Teams shipping products that must meet accessibility regulations (gov, finance, edu)
  • Design system and component library maintainers doing reviews
  • Teams starting accessibility work who need a concrete starting checklist

Examples

  1. Fix a modal: "Refactor this Dialog per accessibility-patterns" → Claude adds aria-modal, aria-labelledby and wires in the focus trap hook.
  2. Pre-release audit: "Audit this page markup against the checklist" → flags missing alt text, color-only information, removed focus outlines.
  3. CI integration: "Add an accessibility gate with axe-core and Lighthouse" → builds a pipeline step from the CLI commands in the doc.
