Accessibility
Last updated 12 October 2026
This statement describes how accessible this website is, what we have actually checked, and what to do if something does not work for you. It is written honestly rather than aspirationally — where something is untested, it says so.
What works
- Keyboard navigation. Every interactive control can be reached and operated with a keyboard, and focus is shown with a visible gold outline rather than being removed.
- Text scaling. The layout uses relative units and reflows down to narrow screens, so browser zoom up to 200% does not cut content off.
- Contrast. Body text and headings are set against dark backgrounds at ratios intended to exceed the WCAG AA minimum of 4.5:1.
- Reduced motion. Animations respect the operating system's prefers-reduced-motion setting and stop rather than merely slowing.
- Special events and the welcome screen. When the site dresses up for an occasion — bats at Halloween, snow at Christmas — the decorations sit behind the page's words and buttons, so they never cover anything you read or press, and a pause button next to the theme switch (or at the end of the event's banner line on a phone) stops them; the choice is remembered. With reduced motion set, they never move at all. The event's colours are checked to keep text at 4.5:1 or better in both themes. The homepage's welcome screen plays at most once a day, is announced to screen readers as one short line, and any click, tap or key skips it.
- Structure. Pages use real headings, lists and landmarks, so screen readers and reader modes can navigate them.
- A light theme. Every page, including this one, offers a parchment theme for anyone who finds light text on dark backgrounds hard to read. The choice is remembered across the whole site.
- Phones and tablets. Every page works on screens from 320 pixels wide — a small phone — up, upright or turned sideways, without scrolling sideways. We check each page at phone, tablet and desktop sizes with an automated test before it ships.
- Touch targets and text size on touch screens. On a phone or tablet, anything you press is at least about 40 pixels tall, no text is smaller than 11 pixels, and text boxes use a size that stops the page zooming in when you tap into them. Pinch zoom is never disabled.
Known limitations
We would rather list these than claim they do not exist.
- No formal audit has been carried out. Accessibility here comes from building carefully, not from a professional assessment against WCAG 2.2.
- Screen readers have not been tested end to end. The markup is structured with them in mind, but we have not verified the experience with NVDA, JAWS or VoiceOver.
- The Developer Portal is dense. Ticket boards and charts carry a lot of information at once, which may be difficult with a screen magnifier.
- Some information is conveyed with colour. Contributor colours on boards are accompanied by names, but progress bars and charts rely more heavily on colour than they should.
- The design document editor is a rich-text surface and has not been tested with assistive technology.
If something does not work for you
Email contact@fluxioninteractive.net and tell us what you were trying to do and what got in the way. This is a small studio, so it goes directly to someone who can change the code.
If you need information from this site in a different format, ask and we will provide it.
Our position
Fluxion Interactive is a one-person studio. We cannot promise a formally certified experience, but we can promise that a specific problem raised with us gets looked at properly rather than filed. Several accessibility improvements already in place came from exactly that.
