Accessibility statement

Last reviewed: April 2026

The short version

This site aims to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standards.

Skip links, visible focus styles, and ARIA attributes are in place across all pages.

Some font sizes are currently below the recommended minimum — this is being addressed.

If you hit a barrier, get in touch and it will be looked at promptly.

Our aim

Nothing but Tools aims to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. These are the internationally recognised standards for accessible web content, covering things like keyboard navigation, screen reader support, colour contrast, and readable text.

This is a personal project and an ongoing effort. Where something falls short of the standard, the intention is to fix it, not explain it away.

What has been done

The following improvements have been made across all pages on the site:

Skip links — every page has a "Skip to main content" link as the first element in the page, allowing keyboard users to bypass the navigation.
Visible focus styles — all interactive elements show a clear teal outline when focused using a keyboard, replacing the browser default which can be difficult to see.
ARIA live regions — on pages that generate AI output, the status area (which shows messages like "Generating…" or error notices) uses aria-live="polite" so screen readers announce updates automatically.
ARIA pressed states — the filter buttons on the homepage use aria-pressed to communicate their active state to screen readers.
Semantic HTML — pages use appropriate heading structure, landmark elements, and labelled form fields throughout.
Autocomplete off — API key input fields have autocomplete="off" to prevent browsers from suggesting or storing sensitive values.

Known limitations

Font size: several UI labels and secondary text elements use font sizes below the commonly recommended minimum of 16px. This affects readability for some users. It is a known issue and is being addressed as part of ongoing improvements to the site.

If you encounter any other issues not listed here, please report them using the contact details below.

Technical information

Nothing but Tools is committed to making this site accessible. This site is built with standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and does not rely on any frameworks or third-party UI components that could introduce accessibility issues outside of our control (with the exception of the QR code library on the QR Generator page).

Testing has been carried out using keyboard-only navigation and by reviewing the markup against WCAG 2.1 AA criteria. Automated tooling has not yet been used — this is planned.
