Site features

What this site does for you.

• Skip link

  Skip-to-main-content link appears at the top of every page on focus.

• Visible focus rings

  All interactive elements show a 2px outline in the accent color on keyboard focus.

• Semantic landmarks

  Each page renders <main>, <header>, <nav>, <aside>, and <footer> landmarks with descriptive labels.

• Reduced motion

  Motion is honored at the OS level — `prefers-reduced-motion` resets animations and transitions to near-zero.

• High-contrast mode

  Site-wide high-contrast theme available in the utility bar and persisted across sessions.

• AA contrast

  Text passes WCAG AA contrast at every body and UI size. Display headings often pass AAA.

• Keyboard-only navigation

  Every interaction is reachable and operable from the keyboard. No mouse-only patterns.

• Screen reader labels

  Placeholder blocks use role=img with descriptive aria-label. Integration slots include accessible names.

• Captioned media

  Captions on all video where used. Transcripts available for audio. Sign language interpretation for live events on request.

• Sensory-friendly hours

  Soldiers Memorial offers sensory-friendly hours; the Museum has sensory bags and a quiet space.
