WCAG Conformance Levels</h3>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Level</th>\n<th>Description</th>\n<th>Required For</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>A</strong></td>\n<td>Minimum accessibility</td>\n<td>Legal baseline</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>AA</strong></td>\n<td>Standard conformance</td>\n<td>Most regulations</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>AAA</strong></td>\n<td>Enhanced accessibility</td>\n<td>Specialized needs</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h3>2. POUR Principles</h3>\n<pre><code>Perceivable:  Can users perceive the content?\nOperable:     Can users operate the interface?\nUnderstandable: Can users understand the content?\nRobust:       Does it work with assistive tech?\n</code></pre>\n<h3>3. Common Violations by Impact</h3>\n<pre><code>Critical (Blockers):\n├── Missing alt text for functional images\n├── No keyboard access to interactive elements\n├── Missing form labels\n└── Auto-playing media without controls\n\nSerious:\n├── Insufficient color contrast\n├── Missing skip links\n├── Inaccessible custom widgets\n└── Missing page titles\n\nModerate:\n├── Missing language attribute\n├── Unclear link text\n├── Missing landmarks\n└── Improper heading hierarchy\n</code></pre>\n<h2>Detailed patterns and worked examples</h2>\n<p>Detailed pattern documentation lives in <code>references/details.md</code>.
