## Beschreibung

Classic Menu Accessible (A11y) makes the native WordPress menu more inclusive and
compliant with digital accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2 level AA, RGAA, Anysurfer).

It improves the behavior of dropdown menus generated via _Apparence > Menus_ (WordPress
classic menu).

 * WCAG 2.2 level AA, RGAA and Anysurfer compliance
 * Compatible with _Apparence > Menus_ (WordPress classic menu system)
 * Keyboard navigation (TAB, SHIFT+TAB, arrows, ESC)
 * Customizable focus styles in the admin
 * Lightweight, no external dependencies

This plugin is ideal for institutional, non-profit and professional websites that
want to improve the experience for people using a screen reader, keyboard-only navigation
or other assistive technologies.

No complicated setup is required: just activate the plugin, and your WordPress menu
automatically becomes accessible.

_Compliance notes:_ The final accessibility compliance of your site depends on your
content, theme, and practices. Always refer to your accessibility audits to validate
overall compliance.
