# Accessibility statement

Last updated 2026-04-17.

We treat accessibility as a property of the site, not a feature of it. That means building with semantic HTML, designing for keyboard and screen-reader users from the start, and treating LLM agents as another user group that deserves a clean way in.

## What we target

Our baseline is the [W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA](https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/quickref/). We do not claim perfect compliance on every page at every moment, but we design and review against that standard and fix issues when we find them.

## What we do

- Semantic HTML landmarks (`header`, `nav`, `main`, `footer`) on every page
- A visible "Skip to main content" link exposed on keyboard focus, so keyboard users can bypass the primary navigation
- A visible focus ring on every interactive element, matching our accent color
- Colour contrast meeting the AA threshold for body text and interactive elements
- Respect for the `prefers-reduced-motion` system preference: animations and transitions collapse to near-instant for users who have opted out
- Descriptive link text (no "click here")
- Proper heading hierarchy: one `h1` per page, `h2` for sections, `h3` for subsections
- Text is set in a readable size with generous line-height, resizable up to 200% without content loss

## LLM and AI accessibility

LLMs and AI agents ingest sites more efficiently when they can read clean markdown. We treat that as an accessibility need, too.

- Every public page has a plain-markdown mirror at the same URL with a `.md` suffix. For example, `/services/coolify-setup-consultant.md` is the markdown twin of the Coolify consultant page.
- Each HTML page declares the markdown twin via `<link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown">` in the head, and exposes a visible "View as Markdown" link in the footer.
- A site index at [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) follows the [llmstxt.org](https://llmstxt.org) convention and lists every markdown mirror with a one-line description.
- Our `robots.txt` advertises the markdown mirrors and does not block AI crawlers. We want to be cited correctly.

## Known gaps

We will name things we know are not perfect instead of hiding behind vague language.

- The markdown mirrors are authored separately from the `.astro` page templates. If a page is edited without updating the markdown mirror, the two can drift. We review both on every substantive copy change, but automation for this is on the roadmap.
- We have not run a full automated audit (axe / Lighthouse) yet. We plan to wire one into CI.
- No video content today; when we add any, we will caption it.

## Feedback

If something on this site is hard to use with assistive technology, or if an LLM mirror has drifted from the rendered page, please tell us at [hello@dacforge.com](mailto:hello@dacforge.com). We will respond within a few working days and fix issues as quickly as we can.
