Accessible by Design, Inclusive by Default
Dilex Search is built from the ground up to support a broad range of searcher needs. It enables libraries to deliver a more inclusive discovery experience without requiring users to adapt their process to a rigid structure.
Conformance Is Our Starting Point
WCAG 2.2 Level AA is the floor. Here is how much further we go.
WCAG 2.2 Level AA
Full conformance across all five application pages, verified by axe-core and manual DOM inspection with zero violations.
Lighthouse 100/100
Perfect accessibility scores on every page: Task List, Search History, Search, and Workspace.
Inclusive by Design, Not by Adjustment
The interface is designed to support users of varying abilities by default and every feature is operable via keyboard with visible focus indicators and no keyboard traps.
Accessibility That Respects the User
The user already knows what works for them so their browser defaults such as motion and font size preferences are honored.
Beyond Technical Conformance
Research-backed methods were built into Dilex Search from the beginning to support neurodiverse searchers, reduce cognitive load, and maintain clear task flows.
