Description
I'm taking a course in web development and accessibility, where we are using a tool called Wave.
I checked the website and it's complaining about contrast issues with the light grey text on white background, and the white text on green.
Also there seem to be some heading levels skipped, redundant links and title text.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by running the website through Wave and reviewing the reported contrast, heading, redundant-link, and title-text findings. No files, tests, or entry points are named, so first map each finding to the relevant website page or component. Done means the reported accessibility findings are addressed and Wave no longer reports them.
