The commitment.
LocalRootsStudio is committed to making this site and every site I build accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We aim to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA as a minimum standard, and strive for Level AAA where practical.
What that means in practice.
Every site I deliver — including this one — is built with: semantic HTML, keyboard-navigable interfaces, focus-visible outlines, ARIA labels where standard HTML semantics aren't enough, sufficient color contrast (4.5:1 minimum for body text, 3:1 for large text), alternative text on all meaningful images, captions or transcripts on video content, and motion that respects prefers-reduced-motion.
QA standard.
Every deploy is verified with Pa11y (≥95 score required) and Lighthouse Accessibility audit (≥95 score required) before going live. The Tilted Safari Grid signature component on this site, for instance, respects reduced-motion and is fully keyboard-navigable.
Found something I missed?
If any part of this site is not accessible to you, please tell me at ben@localrootsstudio.com or call (480) 228-4564. I treat accessibility issues with the same priority as functional bugs — fixed and redeployed.
