Accessibility Statement

Last updated: June 2026

Commitment

I am committed to making jimbir.ch accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. This site targets WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance and is audited regularly using Lighthouse and manual testing.

What we've done

• Semantic HTML landmarks (main, nav, footer, article)
• All images have descriptive alt attributes
• Color contrast ratios meet or exceed 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text
• Keyboard navigation works throughout the site
• Navigation includes ARIA labels and aria-current="page" on active links
• Mobile navigation toggle uses aria-expanded and aria-controls
• Focus indicators are visible on interactive elements
• No content flashes or auto-playing media
• Heading hierarchy is sequential on every page

Known limitations

Some older blog posts were originally published on a Drupal 7 site and may contain legacy markup that does not fully meet current standards. I address these issues as they are identified.

Feedback

If you encounter an accessibility barrier on this site, please email hello@jimbir.ch with a description of the issue and the page URL. I aim to respond within five business days.

Technical approach

This site is built with Astro, a static site generator. CSS is inlined at build time to eliminate render-blocking requests. JavaScript is minimal and used only for scroll-reveal animations and mobile navigation — both of which degrade gracefully without JS.
