All content and functionality must be accessible in a way that users can perceive regardless of sensory limitations.
User interfaces components and navigation must be operable with a wide range of input devices through keyboard, touch, and eye tracking.
Information and user interface operations must be presented in ways that users can understand, including consistent navigation and clear text.
