WCAG 2.2 Card Deck

Last updated: January 25, 2026 (Version 1.2) 4 cards from the WCAG 2.2 card deck in a fan-shaped arrangement. The cards include simplified descriptions of the criteria, icons to indicate disabilities and responsibilities, as well as links and QR codes for the full description. Version 0.4 of the card deck and the Creative Commons licence CC BY-SA 4.0 are visible at the bottom.

What Is This Card Deck About?

The WCAG 2.2 Card Deck started as a weekend project to combine multiple great accessibility resources into a single toolkit:

a summary of all WCAG 2.2 success criteria
in easy to understand descriptions
grouped by practical theme for testing (based on 'WCAG 2.2 map by theme', 'WCAG 2.2 map by theme - AAA version' and 'WCAG decision tree' by Andrew Hick)
including indicators who benefits from meeting each criterion (based on Atomic A11Y by Charlie Triplett, Appt.org, and IBM accessibility requirements)
highlighting which roles are primarily responsible (based on the GOV.UK WCAG Primer, and the 'Accessibility Responsibilities by Project Role' checklist from the University of Melbourne)
suggesting which success criteria work best together

How To Use?

Use the WCAG 2.2 Deck to run workshops, accessibility audits, training, or whatever you can use it for.

What's Up Next?

Thanks to amazing feedback after my initial announcement on LinkedIn, I already have a list of features that I am planning to add in future versions:

More languages (already planned: Japanese, Arabian, Swedish, Norwegian, Catalan - more to come)
Add method descriptions (how to get most out of the card deck - e.g. for training/learning, or accessibility audits)
Add tools that can be used to test for each success criteria (including relevant external sources)
Include references to tools that can be used together with the Card Deck
Accessible HTML version of the WCAG 2.2 Card Deck (on a public GitHub repository; licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0)
WCAG Card Deck posters
A 'WCAG 2.2 map by theme' poster (visualize the cards as underground line)
Good/bad examples for each success criteria (to improve independently or facilitated training with the cards)
Information about what barriers are created if ignored
... and more
