Here's the software I use. I've recently started to reduce my use of <abbr title="Textual User Interfaces">TUIs</abbr> in favor of <abbr title="Command Line Interfaces">CLIs</abbr> for a variety of reasons. When possible, I try to use lightweight programs that can run on any machine, from a single-board computer to a giant desktop. I don't ever want to feel like I need to upgrade my hardware to do the same tasks as before: hardware upgrades should only be justified by my use-cases significantly changing, existing hardware being broken beyond repair, or upstream abandonment of security patches.[^1]

Webhint checks HTTP headers, validates the Web App Manifest, ensures caching and compression work, checks for compatibility issues, validates compliance with a performance budget, and looks for common HTML/CSS mistakes.

Tools I have yet to add to this section:

KaiOS devices tend to have 240 px viewports; smartwatches tend to have half the width of a phone while emulating a phone width (Apple Watches can be instructed not to do this with a proprietary `meta` tag).

CSS containment allows authors to isolate sub-trees of the DOM. This lets browsers make more informed optimizations: they can delay painting off-screen content or reduce re-calculations when isolated nodes change. Combined with a property like "content-visibility", it enables browsers to defer all rendering of less essential below-the-fold content.
|
||||
|

> "content-visibility: auto" is a more complex value than "content-visibility: hidden"; rather than being similar to display: none, it adaptively hides/displays an element’s contents as they become relevant to the user. It also doesn’t hide its skipped contents from the user agent, so screen readers, find-in-page, and other tools can still interact with it.

Leveraging containment and "content-visibility" is a progressive enhancement, so there aren't any serious implications for older browsers.

Using containment for content at the end of the page is relatively safe. Using it for content earlier in the page risks introducing layout shifts. Eliminate the layout shifts by calculating a value for the "contain-intrinsic-size" property. This is a comprehensive hide to calculating intrinsic size values, by Thijs Terluin of Teluin Webdesign:

I disagree. Readers already expect underlined text to signify a hyperlink. Don’t break fundamental affordances for aesthetics. Underlines are also necessary to distinguish the beginnings and ends of multiple consecutive links, especially among color-blind users.

### Buttons versus links
|
||||
|
||||
Buttons are another type of interactive element. Users are accustomed to recognizing buttons by their visually distinct interactive region. While hyperlinks are only signified by color and a text underline, buttons are signified by a background-color change and/or a visible border. Do not conflate the two!
|
||||
|
||||
The purpose of a hyperlink is specifically to navigate to a different location. If a button exists to do the same thing, it shouldn't be a button; it should have both hyperlink semantics and presentation instead. Otherwise, the consequences of element activation are unclear.

In addition to offering ample non-interactive space (see the prior "non-interactive space" section), ensure that non-interactive and interactive space regions are visually distinct. The backgrounds of regions containing multiple visible elements should be non-interactive.

Remember that not all landmarks are announced by screen readers; for instance, many screen readers don't announce the ending of a <header> element in an article.

Consider adding a "skip link" if some pages require many "Tab" keystrokes to reach the main content.

Skip links are especially helpful when pure heading- and landmark-based navigation isn't optimal.

Note: I say that a skip link is useful to reduce the amount of "Tab" keystrokes required, but I don't know a good "threshold number" to signify "too many keystrokes". If it takes ten keystrokes to reach the main content, you're probably overdue for a skip-link.
|
||||

If your skip link toggles visibility states when focused, ensure that it doesn't move any existing content. If it appears over existing content, it needs to have a solid background; if you set the background color, set a foreground color too.

One key difference between buttons and links is the cursor appearance. Buttons should not turn the cursor into a "hand" or "pointer" icon. The article {{<mention-work itemtype="BlogPosting" itemprop="citation" role="doc-credit">}}{{<cited-work url="https://hidde.blog/some-pointers-on-default-cursors/" name="Some pointers on default cursors" extraName="headline">}} by {{<indieweb-person itemprop="author" name="Hidde de Vries" url="https://hidde.blog/about-me/">}}{{</mention-work>}} covers both sides of the issue. Personally, I think it's best to respect the convention of the browser and OS rather than break it.

### Visible non-interactive semantics
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to [offering ample non-interactive space](#non-interactive-space), ensure that non-interactive and interactive regions are visually distinct. Avoid making interactive elements with many children.
|
||||
|
||||
GitHub's mobile website is a serious offender; see [this screenshot of the GitHub bug tracker](#gh-interactive) for an example. The background region of the visible issue is interactive, and so are its contents. However, the header of the issues list has a non-interactive background that looks the same. Visual appearance does not convey the difference between a button and a hyperlink. The "enhancement" link points to a unique location, yet it loses its interactivity on narrow viewports with no visual change; tapping it navigates to a different location depending on viewport width.

For lossy compression, I typically use [GNU Parallel](https://www.gnu.org/software/parallel/) to mass-generate images using different options before selecting the smallest image at the minimum acceptable quality. Users who'd rather avoid the command line while performing lossy compression can instead check out [Squoosh](https://squoosh.app/), a JavaScript app that bundles Web­Assembly-compiled encoders; I've heard good things about it.

2. Lossy compression with `pngquant`

3. Losslessly optimize the result with `oxipng` and its Zopfli backend (slow)

4. Also create a lossless WebP from the lossy PNG and a lossy WebP from the source image, using `cwebp`. Pick the smaller of the two.

5. Include the resulting WebP in the page, with a fallback to the PNG using a `<picture>` element.
|
||||
|

6. Create a lossy AVIF image from the cropped full-color PNG, and include it in the `<picture>` element if it's smaller than the WebP. If color isn't important, use the YUV400 color space.

In general, avoid loading images just for decoration. Only use an image if it has a clear purpose that significantly adds to the content in a way that text can't replace, and provide alt-text as a fallback. Any level of detail that isn't necessary for getting the point across should be removed by lossy compression and cropping.

These resources also encourage authors to include different image variants for different viewport sizes, screen resolutions, and pixel densities. They often skip the caveats:
|
||||
|
||||
* Using different image files for different viewport sizes can cause the page to request more images as users re-size their window.
|
||||
|

* Sending requests dependent on viewport and display characteristics is a fingerprinting vector, allowing servers to identify users by these properties.

Remember that not all landmarks are announced by screen readers; for instance, many screen readers don't announce the ending of a `<header>` element in an article.

Sidebars are probably unnecessary, and can be quite annoying to readers who re-size windows frequently. This is especially true for tiling window manager users like me: we frequently shrink windows to a fraction of their original size. When this happens to a website with a sidebar, one of two things happens:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The site's responsive design kicks in: the sidebar vanishes and its elements move elsewhere. This can be quite CPU-heavy, as the browser has to both re-wrap the text and handle a complex layout change. Frequent window re-sizers will experience lag and battery loss, and might need a moment to figure out where everything went.
|
||||

2. The site doesn't use responsive design. The navbar and main content are now squeezed together. Readers will probably close the page.

Images do not reflow their text. When the viewport is narrower than the image dimensions, you can instruct the browser to do one of three things:
|

1. Allow the image to exceed the viewport width, triggering two-dimensional scrolling for the whole page.

2. Shrink the image to fit the viewport, causing the text in the image to shrink with it.

3. Allow the image to horizontally overflow.

I already covered the first option in the prior subsection. If you expect viewers to read the text in the image and you don't link an image transcript, the second option isn't ideal. Overflow is almost never what we want.

The best compromise is to ensure that the image isn't too wide, and can support large text on a narrow viewport. Lines of text in images should contain as few characters as possible. For a good example, see the "[In defense of link underlines](#in-defense-of-link-underlines)" section.

Since all my pages are linked by my site's global navigation or my "posts" page (also in the global navigation), I just used `aria-current` and made the currently-relevant entry in my global navigation a `<strong>` element.

Chromium (and derivatives) users can [install an extension](https://github.com/Foxy/chrome-type-ahead); note that it requires full-page access and performs script injection to work.
|

[^10]: The benefits of containment are especially noticeable when injecting styles into a page. "Dark mode" and "userstyle" extensions perform noticeably better when enough elements receive layout and paint containment. Containment allows browsers to handle changes to an element independently of the rest of the DOM.

[^21]: ATs typically let users navigate by headings, landmarks, paragraphs, and links. Most users prefer skipping article content with heading-based navigation. Keyboard users can bind different keys to different modes of navigation, but mobile users can only access one navigation mode at a time.
|
||||
[^22]: I find it quite odd that Microsoft Edge doesn't support AVIF. Chromium has supported AVIF for a long time, and Edge is based on Chromium. AVIF is a royalty-free format; I don't know why Microsoft would remove support for it, especially since Microsoft allows adding AVIF support to Windows. I think Edge also removed Chromium's experimental, off-by-default support for JPEG-XL.

[^23]: I say that a skip link is useful to reduce the amount of <kbd>Tab</kbd> keystrokes required, but I don't know a good "threshold number" to signify "too many keystrokes". If it takes ten keystrokes to reach the main content, it's probably time to add a skip-link.

|
||||
|
||||
Mobile users wishing to temporarily switch modes have to stop, change their navigation mode, perform a navigation gesture, and switch back. Mobile users trying to skim an article don't always find this worth the effort and sometimes stick to heading-based navigation even when a different mode would be optimal.

[^25]: I excluded PageSpeed Insights and GTMetrix since those are mostly covered by Lighthouse. I excluded Security Headers, since its approach seems to be recommending headers regardless of whether or not they are necessary. It penalizes forgoing the <code>Permissions-<wbr />Policy</code> header even if the CSP blocks script loading and execution; see [Security Headers issue #103](https://github.com/securityheaders/securityheaders-bugs/issues/103). I personally find the <code>Permissions-<wbr />Policy</code> header quite problematic, as I noted in August 2021 on [webappsec-permissions-policy issue #189](https://github.com/w3c/webappsec-permissions-policy/issues/189#issuecomment-904783021).

I also disagree with some of its `content-type` recommendations: you don't need to declare UTF-8 charsets for SVG content-type headers if the SVG is ASCII-only and called from a UTF-8 HTML document. You gain nothing but header bloat by doing so.
