FIX

8 issue(s) across 8 links and 8 buttons

Links without text are announced as raw URLs by screen readers.

Got: /hi/rachnaen; /hi/rachnaen; /poetry; /poetry; /writers; /submit

2 button(s) with no accessible text

Icon-only buttons need an aria-label so screen readers can announce them.

Got: button (#102 on page); button.solid-link (#105 on page)

2 link(s) with descriptive text

/hi/rachnaen; /hi/rachnaen; /poetry; /poetry; /writers; /submit

Why this matters

Links with no accessible text (empty <a></a>, image-only no alt, icon-only no aria-label) are unidentifiable to screen readers.

Icon-only buttons need an aria-label so screen readers can announce them.

button (#102 on page); button.solid-link (#105 on page)

Why this matters

Buttons with no accessible text (icon-only, no aria-label) can't be activated by voice control or understood by screen readers.

Dark Mode Support

Action

Theme color only

FIX

Theme color only

Theme-color present but no dark variant

A theme-color is set but no dark-specific variant was found. The browser toolbar may not adapt for dark mode users.

Got: #f4f0e8

No dark mode signals detected

Consider adding CSS with @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) and <meta name='color-scheme' content='light dark'>.

Detection limited to meta tags and inline styles

External CSS files may contain prefers-color-scheme rules not visible to this scan.

Print Stylesheet

Action

No print styles

FIX

No print styles

No print-specific styles detected

When users print this page, they get the screen layout including navigation and non-essential elements. Add @media print rules to hide navigation and optimize layout for paper.

Navigation UX

No navigation patterns

FIX

No navigation patterns

1 navigation landmark(s) detected

No breadcrumbs, search, or skip link detected

Empty headings appear in the document outline but provide no information.

Empty headings appear in the document outline but provide no information.

Why this matters

Empty <hN> tags break the document outline — screen-reader users navigating by heading hit dead silence.

Tap Target Adequacy

3 tap target(s) too small or too close together

REVIEW

3 tap target(s) too small or too close together

3 tap target(s) too small or too close to neighbors

WCAG 2.5.5 (Level AAA) requires interactive targets to be at least 44x44 CSS pixels; WCAG 2.5.8 (Level AA, added in 2.2) requires 24x24 minimum. Failing targets cause mis-taps for users with motor impairments, large fingers, or shaky hands -- and are a major bounce-rate driver on mobile commerce flows. Lighthouse measures rendered rects + adjacent-element spacing; the failing list is in the Lighthouse 'tap-targets' audit detail panel.

Skip navigation link is missing (WCAG 2.4.1)

Add a skip link as the first focusable element so keyboard users can bypass repeated navigation.

Page Structure — as a screen reader sees it

Add a skip link as the first focusable element so keyboard users can bypass repeated navigation.

Why this matters

Without a skip-nav link, keyboard users tab through every nav item before reaching content — every page, every visit.

WCAG 2.4.1 (Bypass Blocks) requires a mechanism to skip past repeated content. The standard implementation is a 'Skip to main content' link that's the first focusable element, visually hidden until focused. Three lines of HTML + four of CSS.

Form Input Types

1 input(s) using type=text where a specific type would help

PASS

1 input(s) using type=text where a specific type would help

Input "q" should use type="search" (currently type="text")

Field name "q" suggests type="search". Wrong type loses mobile keyboard hints, browser autofill, and free format validation. Change to <input type="search">.

Tabindex Anti-Patterns

0 positive, 1 -1-on-focusable

PASS

0 positive, 1 -1-on-focusable

tabindex="-1" on naturally-focusable <button id="home-feature-tab-images">

tabindex="-1" removes an element from the keyboard tab order. Naturally-focusable elements (links, buttons, form controls) become unreachable for keyboard users. (Common false-positive: hidden honeypot fields. Verify the element is genuinely interactive before removing the tabindex.)

Manifest has no maskable icon

Android 12+ Adaptive Icons crop non-maskable icons to a circle or squircle -- frequently hiding important parts of the logo. Add at least one icon entry with `"purpose": "maskable"` (or `"any maskable"`) and a maskable-aware design (16% safe-zone padding around the inner mark).

Mobile UX Depth

1 mobile-depth signal(s) detected

PASS

1 mobile-depth signal(s) detected

Browser-chrome `theme-color` meta tag present

The page sets `<meta name="theme-color" content="...">`, which Android Chrome uses to tint the status bar and iOS Safari uses for the toolbar background. Brand polish that costs nothing and Just Works.

Lighthouse Accessibility Audits

Score 96/100 — 2 failing, 25 passed

PASS

Accessibility

These checks highlight opportunities to improve the accessibility of your web app. Automatic detection can only detect a subset of issues and does not guarantee the accessibility of your web app, so manual testing is also encouraged.

Best practices

Touch targets with sufficient size and spacing help users who may have difficulty targeting small controls to activate the targets. Learn more about touch targets.
