Introduction
Welcome to my comprehensive accessibility review for DuckDuckGo. Before diving in, please note:
- Some chapters are not publicly available and are denoted by a "no entry" emoji (⛔). Similarly, only a portion of my knowledge base entries are public, most will links will say “no access”.
- This audit is designed to be read sequentially, but feel free to pick and choose sections of interest. However, keep in mind that some recommendations build on previous ones.
- The writing in this audit may be more verbose than in a typical audit. I am using this as a case study and teaching material as well and include more of my thought process.
