WCGA 2.1 and Keyboard Focus

The WCGA 2.1 standards are important to guarantee web accessibility. I noticed that our home page has some components that are not complying with Criterion 2.4.7 - Focus Visible.

This criterion requires that any keyboard operable user interface has a mode of operation where the keyboard focus indicator is visible. You can read more about this rule on the understanding focus visible section.

I included a list of components that need to be more accessible for keyboard users.

Person with a motor impairment wears a pointer cap to type on the keyboard, this allows him to use a computer

Focus visibility is very important for people that can only use keyboards due to motor impairments.

Components that need a Visible Focus
