What’s New with WCAG 2.2?

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are the international standards for accessibility on the internet and WCAG 2.2 became the officially recommended version on October 5, 2023. The latest update includes 9 new success criteria, one success criterion moving up a level, and for the first time, a success criterion is being removed. The focus of these updates is on users with low vision, cognitive impairments, and limited fine motor skills.
