WCAG criteria for Navigation & Wayfinding

Don't rely on shape, size, or location alone for instructions (e.g., 'click the round button').

Provide skip links to allow users to bypass repetitive navigation and jump to main content.

Every page must have a unique, descriptive title.

Tab order must follow a logical sequence that matches visual layout.

Link text should make sense on its own or within its context.

Provide multiple ways to find pages (e.g., search, sitemap, navigation).

Headings and labels must be descriptive and clear.

Tell users where they are in the site structure (e.g., breadcrumbs).

Link text must be descriptive on its own (no 'click here').

Use headings to break up content into logical sections.
