WCAG 2.2

The international standard for accessible web content.

What is WCAG 2.2?

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines in their 2.2 edition are the internationally recognised standard for accessible web content. They sort everything under four principles: perceivable, operable, understandable, robust. Each success criterion is graded as level A, AA or AAA, with AA being the practical target for most projects. Version 2.2 sharpens exactly the points where real usage tends to break, such as a visible focus that is not obscured and target sizes large enough for hands with limited motor control.

How we use it

We treat WCAG 2.2 level AA as a fixed benchmark for every project where accessibility matters. Instead of guessing at the end, we check contrast, focus order and keyboard operation already in the design and in how components are built. That way you end up not with a promise but with a site whose accessibility you can prove criterion by criterion.

Good to know

AAA sounds like the better target, but it is rarely realistic for entire pages and the W3C does not intend it as a blanket requirement either. We deliberately aim for solid AA and pull in individual AAA criteria only where they bring real benefit.
