WCAG 2.0 made easy

W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 have the spirit of trying to bring out a more accessible Web. This book is an elaborated summary of techniques to develop accessible websites and it is divided into 6 chapters:

1. Introduction to the key elements of the Guidelines: organization, conformance leves, accessibility supported technologies, conformance claims...
2. Principle 1: Perceivable. Our website can be visited by people with very different types of perceptive preferences and needs, but also by robots (search engines, automatic translators...).
3. Principle 2: Operable. Web designers must be aware of the different devices the users can manage to use the website, so they must make the user interface components and navigation elements in a way that everyone can "operate" with it.
4. Principle 3: Understable. If our users don't understand what we are talking about, or we make them feel lost, we have a problem.
5. Principle 4: Robust. We must be aware of the evolution of the technologies to adapt our website to their new capabilities.
6. Tools. You will find a useful bunch of templates and information here.

WCAG 2.0 made easy has been written in a style and language aimed to be used by web project managers, developers, information architects, interaction designers, content strategists… for a practical and learning purpose.
