WCAG 3.0 / Silver
Next-generation accessibility guidelines in early draft. Major restructuring: outcome-based testing, severity scoring, broader scope (apps, documents, XR). Years from W3C Recommendation. Don't wait for it — implement WCAG 2.2 now.
In plain terms
The future, still-in-draft version of the accessibility guidelines. Years away — build to today's rules, not this one.
Why this matters
It signals where accessibility standards are heading, but it's years from finalisation. Knowing it exists keeps you informed — chasing it now instead of meeting WCAG 2.2 would be a costly mistake.
