Naqui
by Anando Naqui
In January of 2021, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) released the first public draft of a new generation of the WCAG Accessibility guidelines: WCAG 3.0. WCAG 3.0 has a number of significant differences from WCAG 2.x, not just in the site requirements, but also in how the standard is measured and applied. One of the most significant changes under 3.0 is a shift in how conformance is achieved. This article discusses how this change may impact your level of compliance.

Failing to recognize the differences can lead to unrealistic expectations, blown budgets, and development nightmares.
