Accessibility

Measured, not claimed. Every statement below is checked by a test that fails if it stops being true.

What COLPICK does

• Screen reader — every control has a label, and each colour tile reads as one element: “RAL 1000, Green beige”, not four separate fragments.
• Text size — the whole interface scales with Dynamic Type up to the largest accessibility sizes. The catalogue grid re-flows to fewer columns rather than clipping names.
• Contrast — interface text meets WCAG AA on both the light and dark schemes. The values are computed from the palette by a test, so a lighter shade of grey cannot slip in unnoticed.
• Touch targets — every control is at least 44×44 pt.
• Reduced motion — when the system setting is on, transitions become instant state changes rather than animations.

Known limitation

Colour is the subject of this app, so the catalogue cannot convey a shade without showing it. Every shade also carries its RAL code, name and numeric values, so nothing depends on seeing the colour alone.

This website

Plain HTML on fixed routes, a skip link, visible focus, and content identical on mobile and desktop. Aiming at WCAG 2.1 AA.
