Make it accessible

The word is accessibility. In website design, it is the measure of how easy the content of a website is to access, read, and understand. One thing about this feature is that it is more of an interactive document that can be interpreted in different ways by different browsers on various platforms.

I have seen pages where the fonts become garbled, the size too small, and the color is too hurtful in the eyes. I suggest that when designing, it is best to stick to simple fonts and color since users’ settings may override the document, therefore making the page appear differently from intended.
