Going beyond accessibility to reduce motion

Building websites that are accessible to all users is something that continues to be a problem on much of the web, but it’s continuing to improve over time. For most sites, some simple steps will get you going in the right direction and put you ahead of most other sites in helping users with disabilities consume your content.

The code for it is pretty simple, as it only has two options:

• ‘reduce’
• ‘no-preference’

If the user has no-preference, the website will load normally. However, if their computer is sending the ‘reduce’ directive to your site, you can choose to change how motion behaves.
