About
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is a markup language used to create web pages and is the de facto standard for documents displayed in web browsers.
It defines the structure of web content using elements for text, links, images, forms, tables, and embedded media, organizes documents into a hierarchical DOM, and enables hyperlinking between pages, which is a fundamental mechanism of the World Wide Web.
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are an international standard developed by the W3C that defines how to make web content, including text and media, accessible to people with disabilities.
They are technology-agnostic and structured around four core principles (perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust) and define testable success criteria with three conformance levels (A, AA, AAA) used to evaluate accessibility compliance.
