 The [[https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/|Web Content Accessibility Guidelines(WCAG)]] are a set of international standards for accessible web interfaces. The [[https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/atag/|Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG)]] apply to software used to produce web content, like content management systems and WYSIWYG editors.
-Generally, laws require web-based software to meet **WCAG level AA** standards for the most recent version of the guidelines, currently **version 2.1** (released in 2018). Level AAA applies only to specific types of content in certain contexts, like long documents. [[https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#cc1:The standard itself states]], “It is not recommended that Level AAA conformance be required as a general policy for entire sites because it is not possible to satisfy all Level AAA Success Criteria for some content.”
