Quick Tip: Ensure hit targets are generously sized (not just visible)

Accessibility isn’t just about what users see—it’s about how they interact. Small buttons or links can be difficult for users with motor impairments. Aim for larger clickable areas (around 44×44px minimum), even if the visible element is smaller, by expanding padding or using pseudo-elements to increase the hitbox.
