Accessibility

We design spokane.beer to be usable with a keyboard, a screen reader, and in a range of color and contrast conditions. Accessibility is part of the definition of done for every feature, not a separate track.

What we commit to

• All interactive elements are keyboard-reachable and have a visible focus ring.
• All images and icons convey meaning via alt text or aria labels.
• Form fields have explicit labels and error messages.
• Color is never the only signal of meaning; text and icons accompany category color-coding.
• We test with @axe-core/playwright in CI on the main public pages (home, directory, search, events, specials, guides, and this accessibility statement).

Known gaps

Some themed variants (e.g. night porch, market carnival) have visually active backgrounds. We enforce a 4.5:1 minimum body-text contrast, but if you find a spot where a theme makes text hard to read, please tell us.

How to report an issue

Email hello@spokane.sh with the page URL, the issue, and (if comfortable) the assistive technology you’re using. We aim to acknowledge reports within five business days.
