Accessibility

The whole library is meant to work with a keyboard, a screen reader or a phone held sideways, and most of it already does. This page says what is built in, what falls short for now, and how to ask for an alternative.

What is built in

Every page has one heading structure, a skip link and visible focus. Every figure is an SVG carrying an accessible description written for the point it is making rather than a caption repeated, and can be enlarged in a dialog that keyboard users can open, close with Escape and return from. Animated figures respect your reduced-motion setting and start paused if you have one set.

The revision tools work without a mouse. The checklist ratings, the flashcard player and the question player are all reachable and operable from the keyboard, mark schemes are ordinary lists rather than images, and nothing here depends on colour alone to carry a meaning.

Known limitations

The printable workbooks and card packs are generated PDFs and their internal tagging is not at the standard of the web pages. The same questions and the same cards are always available as ordinary HTML on the lesson and flashcard pages, which is the accessible route today.

No page here has yet been walked end to end by a screen-reader user, which is one of the outstanding release gates rather than something this page will claim in advance. If a page, a figure or a download does not work with your setup, that is a defect rather than a policy, and we would like to know.

Another format, or a problem

Write to support@inkphysics.co.uk and say which page and what you need. Reports of anything unusable with a screen reader, keyboard or switch device get fixed with the same priority as a wrong answer.
