A journal for teams that ship accessible products
Threshold is a small, independent journal for product designers, engineers, and accessibility leads working on real systems. We write up the patterns that work, the audit traps that don't, and the regulatory shifts that change what "compliant" means in practice.
No newsletters with five tracking pixels. No sponsored "deep dives". No takes on whether AI will replace designers. Just the writing we wish existed when we started doing this work.

- WCAG 2.2: what actually changed for builders — nine new criteria, three of them affect every form on the web
- Designing for low-vision readers — type scale, line-height, and contrast defaults that go further than "use 16px"
