Standard
Keenious is assessed against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA. WCAG is the accessibility standard published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), and it has three conformance levels: A, AA and AAA.
External assessment
Accessible Web, a member of the International Association of Accessibility Professionals, assessed Keenious against WCAG 2.2 Level AA. The results are published as a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT), a standard format that reports conformance criterion by criterion: Keenious VPAT, WCAG 2.2 AA (PDF).
The report marks every criterion as Supports, Partially Supports or Not Applicable, and none as Does Not Support. These nine criteria are marked Partially Supports, which means some parts of the product do not yet meet them:
1.1.1 Non-text Content
1.3.1 Info and Relationships
1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum)
1.4.11 Non-text Contrast
2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context)
2.4.7 Focus Visible
2.5.3 Label in Name
3.3.2 Labels or Instructions
4.1.2 Name, Role, Value
Keyboard shortcuts
Standard keyboard navigation works throughout Keenious. Tab and Shift+Tab move between controls, Enter or Space activates them, arrow keys move within menus and lists, and Esc closes dialogs, menus and popovers. On a Mac, use Cmd in place of Ctrl and Option in place of Alt.
