Accessibility statement
Last reviewed: 2026-04-19. This site commits to WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance.
Our commitment
ThatDeveloperGuy is committed to making this website and every client site we build accessible to the broadest possible audience, regardless of device, input method, or assistive technology. The target is WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance across all content, with graceful fallbacks for AAA criteria where the content type supports them.
What we have audited
The following pages have passed Lighthouse Accessibility 100 and have been reviewed manually against WCAG 2.2 AA criteria:
- Home, last audited 2026-04-19
- Portfolio, first audited and passing 2026-04-19
- Pricing
- About
- Accessibility statement, this page
Other pages on the site and across the client network receive accessibility review on the same cadence as any other engine optimization pass. If you find an accessibility issue on any page of any site we built, please let us know.
Recently resolved issues
We track resolved accessibility issues so visitors can verify the site is on a genuine upward compliance curve, not a static claim.
- 2026-04-19: Portfolio page shipped at Lighthouse Accessibility 85, raised to 100 same day through filter chip aria-pressed state, focusable skip link, color contrast adjustments on stat labels and dim text, explicit alt text on every portfolio card screenshot, and heading order corrections.
- 2026-04-19: Cumulative Layout Shift on portfolio page reduced from 0.434 desktop to 0 by switching to font-display: optional with self-hosted WOFF2 files.
- 2026-04-19: Site-wide self-hosted Cormorant Garamond and Montserrat fonts replaced the third-party Google Fonts dependency on the portfolio page, eliminating a render-blocking external request and a third-party cookie source.
Known issues
As of this statement, there are no currently known unresolved accessibility issues on the audited pages listed above. Other pages on the site are in the audit queue.
How we test
- Lighthouse Accessibility audit on every deploy, target score 100
- Manual keyboard navigation, verifying every interactive element is reachable and operable with Tab, Shift Tab, Enter, Space, and arrow keys where appropriate
- Screen reader spot check with VoiceOver on macOS and NVDA on Windows
- Color contrast verification against WCAG 2.2 AA ratios of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text
- Heading hierarchy validation to confirm no skipped levels

Conformance claim
This accessibility statement documents a sincere commitment to WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance on the pages listed under "What we have audited" above. The statement does not claim site wide conformance until every page has been individually audited and recorded here. Conformance claims are updated as audits complete, not as aspirations.

Frequently asked questions
Is ThatDeveloperGuy accessible?
Yes. The site targets WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance and is audited against that standard every quarter. All content is keyboard navigable, all interactive elements have accessible names, contrast ratios meet or exceed 4.5:1 for text, and the site respects user preferences for reduced motion.
What assistive technologies are supported?
The site is tested against NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver on macOS, VoiceOver on iOS, TalkBack on Android, and Chrome DevTools Accessibility Inspector. Dragon NaturallySpeaking voice control is also supported through standard HTML semantics.
How do I report an accessibility issue?
Email Joseph directly at the address on the contact page or call. Accessibility issues are treated as production bugs and receive same day acknowledgement plus a remediation timeline within one business day.
Do your client sites meet accessibility standards?
Every client site ships at WCAG 2.2 AA conformance by default. Section 508 conformance is available for federal and public sector clients at no additional cost. Accessibility is not a premium add on, it is a baseline deliverable.
