WCAG Explained for Designers (With Real Examples)

WCAG stands for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

It is an international standard that explains how to design and build websites so everyone can use them, including people with disabilities.

Below are the key WCAG considerations designers must think about

1. Color & Contrast (WCAG: Perceivable)

- Text must be readable against its background
- Color must not be the only way to convey information

Design Rules
✔️Contrast ratio 4.5:1 for normal text (WCAG AA)
5:1 means 4.5 times darker or lighter than the background.
Normal text(Text below 18pt (or below 14pt bold)

- Body text
- Small labels
- Paragraphs

✔️ 3:1 for large text

3:1 means 3 times darker or lighter than the background.

18pt (≈ 24px) or larger

✔️ Use patterns, icons, or text labels—not color alone

Contrast in design: making things look different so they stand out.

2. Typography & Readability

Users may zoom text or have reading difficulties

Design Rules
✔️ Base font size 16px or larger
✔️ Line height ~1.5
✔️ Avoid decorative fonts for body text

3. Layout & Visual Structure

Clear visual hierarchy helps everyone, especially screen reader users

Design Rules
✔️ Use clear headings (H1 → H2 → H3)
✔️ Group related content
✔️ Keep layout consistent across pages

4. Navigation & Interaction

Users may use keyboard, screen readers, or voice commands

Design Rules
✔️ All interactive elements must be keyboard accessible
✔️ Visible focus state for buttons and links
✔️ Large click/tap targets (at least 44×44 px)

5. Forms & Inputs

Forms are one of the biggest accessibility barriers

Design Rules
✔️ Always show labels (not placeholder-only)
✔️ Clear error messages and instructions
✔️ Indicate required fields clearly
✔️ Group related fields visually

6, Images, Icons & Media

Some users can’t see images or hear audio

Design Rules
✔️ Decorative images should be ignored by screen readers
✔️ Informative images need clear alt text
✔️ Videos need captions
✔️ Avoid text baked into images

7, Language & Content Clarity

Cognitive accessibility is part of WCAG

Design Rules

✔️ Use simple, plain language
✔️ Short sentences and paragraphs
✔️ Clear calls-to-action

8, Error Prevention & Feedback

Users should know what went wrong and how to fix it

Design Rules
✔️ Highlight errors clearly
✔️ Explain how to correct them
✔️ Don’t rely on color alone

Should I start studying for a compiler design final exam for Monday, or should I complete a stunning landing page project?

I will obey my audience preference 😄

⚡️ Study 🔥 Design

@OnyxDesignx

So, based on the vote... I will complete the design

Thank you guys

My Dad Was Right

I just didn’t know it then.
Every evening, he came home carrying the tiredness of the day.

Before I could speak, before I could escape into play... he asked the same quiet question

“Did you study?”

Sometimes he’d sit for a moment and say things that felt ordinary, almost annoying:

“ጌዜህን ባግባቡ ተጠቀም”
“መፅሀፍትን አንብብ“
“ጓደኛ ምረጥ”

As a child, I took it personally.
I thought he didn’t see me.
Didn’t understand what I liked.

Didn’t care about my world.
In my mind, he wasn’t guiding me

he was controlling me.
A dictator, I thought.

Then I said "ምን አለበት አሁን ብጫወት በስምእም"

He was always looking at who I could become, not who I was at that moment.


Years passed.

Life began to ask its own hard questions.

Time slipped away faster than I expected.

Mistakes became teachers.

Loss became loud.

And slowly, painfully, his voice started to make sense.


Those simple words weren’t restrictions.

They were protection.
They weren’t pressure.
They were preparation.

I wish I had listened sooner.
Not because life would have been easy
but because it wouldn’t have been so hard.


Now I think about the things he said back then.

So simple.
So easy to ignore.
So expensive to learn later.


One day, I might come home tired too.
And a child might look at me the way I once looked at him.

And I wonder
will they understand me then?
Or will they understand me only years later,

when they whisper to themselves:
“My dad was right.”

How I Handled UX Research With Limited User Access

First, read competitor app reviews

For example, if you are working on an e-commerce mobile app, visit the Play Store , read user comments, identify pain points, and turn them into opportunities.

Second, explore online communities

such as Reddit, Threads, and Quora. Search for topics related to your project and analyze what users are discussing and complaining about.

Finally, use Google to search “your project name” + “UX case study”

to gain insights from existing research and real-world examples

Hello hellooo everyone 👋

Rest is part of doing good design

You sit down to work on a task that should take 30 minutes.

An hour passes. Then two. Now it’s been five hours.

In the middle, you take a “break,” open Instagram, scroll a few reels.

You come back… and nothing changes.

Same confusion. Same tired brain. Same stuck feeling.


Then you start:
- Ignoring spacing issues
- Realizing a feature is over-engineered
- Understanding documentation that felt confusing
- Naming variables, components, or layers randomly

You tell yourself, “I’ve already spent 8 hours today.”

But deep down, the output still isn’t right.


Close your laptop, put your phone away, and step outside.

The air hits your face. The wind rustles the leaves

Walk for 15 minutes or find a quiet spot to sit. Open soft classical music

For a moment, your mind is empty no code, no layouts, no deadlines.

Or take a deep nap, letting your brain reset


When you come back, clarity hits

Design feels lighter.Problems you wrestled with suddenly make sense
