Accessibility Overview

[hannahackermans]

I have tested CELL for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 International Standard according to the requirements of uutilsynet.no, which covers all A and AA success criteria, but not AAA. Some requirements are more intricate than others and I am still new to this, so there might be some things that I’ve overlooked that I can address in the next report.

The table gives an overview of the current state of the accessibility of CELL. I will turn the failures into GitHub issues labeled with "accessibility" and I will update this table to include the right issues. I am leaving some issues behind at this point because some issues overlap with parts of the website that might be overhauled anyway. We can revisit those issues when we have a better sense of the goals and tasks going forward.
