Progressive enhancement is a web development strategy focused on building a robust foundation with HTML. CSS and JavaScript enhancements are added subsequently, ensuring high quality, accessibility, and cross-browser compatibility. The approach promotes fault-tolerant design, improving service resilience and user experience. Best practices involve using semantic markup, feature detection, polyfills, and avoiding dependency on client-side JavaScript frameworks for core functionality.

It’s accessibility is objectively good.
<ul>
<li>It’s fully WCAG compliant as far as I can tell so the aria roles will be easily understood by screen readers.</li>
<li>It’s fully navigable using tab (even components dev’s usually forget like breadcrumbs).</li>
<li>It good highlighting on the cursor and a ‘skip to content’ option when navigating with one button. These things are accessible for people who can’t use a mouse.</li>
<li>text is readable without scrolling on the x axis even at 400% zoom for people with poor eyesight.</li>
</ul>

I’d be curious what you’re issues with it are (apart from the dull styling).
