Accessibility and Display Options

This site respects some appearance and accessibility settings you’ve set in your operating system, usually in a Settings app in either Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android, or your Linux environment of choice (Gnome or some other standards-compliant desktop enviornment with accessibility options)

The options this site will accomodate for are:

• Light or dark mode (defaults to dark mode if you haven’t made a selection)
• High contrast (in conjunction with your light or dark mode setting)
• Reduced motion (no animations or auto-playing videos)

If your browser has JavaScript enabled (it most likely does by default), you can click on the gear icon at the top of the page to adjust these settings on the site.

If you do not have JavaScript enabled, see the lists below for how to enable these appearance and accessiblity features through your operating system of choice.

Light or Dark Mode

• MacOS - Use a light or dark appearance on your Mac
• iOS (iPhone / iPad) - Use Dark Mode on your iPhone and iPad
• Windows - Personalize Your Colors in Windows
• Android - Change to dark or color mode on your Android device
• Gnome (Ubuntu Linux) - Settings > Appearance > (choose Default or Dark)

High Contrast + Reduced Motion

• MacOS - Change Display settings for accessibility on Mac

  • Customize On-Screen Motion
  • iOS doesn’t have a setting for ‘High Contrast’ but you can Change display colors on iPhone to make it easier to see what’s onscreen

Screen Readers

I prioritize testing for:

• NVDA for Windows
• VoiceOver for MacOS and for iOS (iPhone and iPad)

Both of those are free and fantastic screen readers. I highly recommend donating to NVDA so they can continue building the best screen reader and offering it for free.

And I do my best for Android’s TalkBack and Linux’s ORCA.
