Hi,
I ran the website through a few online accessibility checker(EXPERTE, accessibilitychecker, accessibe ) to test how accessible the site is for disabled users.
All sites came back with the following pitfalls :
Background and foreground not having a sufficient contrast::: _ I did not alter this element during my contribution as I didn't want to change the colour palette of the site, without discussing. But this something could be considered for the future._
Some images elements do not have alt attributes ::: Implemented alt text within contribution
Link "" does not have a discernible name ::: Implemented aria-label to give the link a short description which will be accessible to users with a screen reader
Disabling the zoom function can make it difficult for visually impaired users to view the site. ::: Implemented this fix, the change the max scale to 5
Also I fixed the broken links within the project.
Please see the accessibility rating before fixing the issues :::
