How accessible is this website

Parts of this website are not fully accessible. For example:

  • Some pages are not written in plain English. The work I do is technical and described using technical terms. I test website copy and attempt to achieve the best possible Flesch Reading Ease score. I do my best but it is sometimes hard to describe technical things using plain English.
  • Videos of my talks come from external conferences and do not always have subtitles and closed captions. I provide the transcript where possible and always display the video on a page that describes the content of the talk.
  • I am a designer and a self-taught coder. I appreciate I don't always code things in the most technically accessible way. If you spot anything I could improve or have suggestions, please get in touch.
  • Compliance status

    The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. WCAG defines three levels of compliance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. gerireid.com aims for conformance with WCAG 2.1 level AA.
