Knowledge base
Learn: Website Accessibility, Explained in Plain English
A website accessibility knowledge base: short, sourced guides to the ADA web rules and the WCAG standard behind them, written for the administrators and IT staff who have to act on them. Every guide cites the primary source: the regulation, the DOJ's own materials, or the W3C standard, never a vendor's summary.
Which guide in this website accessibility knowledge base answers your question?
The WCAG 2.1 AA checklist
All 50 checkpoints the ADA Title II rule requires, in plain English, plus the 28 Level AAA criteria no regulation demands.
The Title II deadlines, explained
Where April 26, 2027 and April 26, 2028 come from, who falls under which date, and what to do with the time left.
Title II vs Title III
Government entities and private businesses face different rules on paper and nearly the same work in practice. The differences that matter.
Automated scans vs human review
What a scanner measures well, what it cannot judge at all, and why no honest vendor sells a compliance certificate.
Accessible documents
PDFs, agendas, minutes and forms: which documents the rule covers, which fall under the exception, and what an accessible document means.
Vendor-run websites
Your vendor built it, hosts it and updates it. The obligation is still yours. What the rule says and how to manage it.
Where should a new reader start?
