For React / Next.js teams shipping shadcn/ui to the EU
A buyer's procurement team just asked for WCAG accessibility documentation. Conformance Studio scans your shadcn/Next.js app in your browser and drafts four documents a reviewer can inspect — conformance report, accessibility statement, remediation log, and questionnaire answers. It targets WCAG 2.2 AA as a best-practice baseline while noting that the currently harmonised EN 301 549 web basis remains WCAG 2.1. No backend. Nothing leaves your machine.
The painful moment
The European Accessibility Act has applied since 28 June 2025 to covered products and listed services, including e-commerce. For software teams, the practical commercial effect is often a buyer email asking for documented accessibility evidence before procurement can proceed.
"Before we can proceed, our procurement team requires your accessibility conformance documentation. Please complete the attached vendor questionnaire and include your current testing scope, known limitations and remediation plan."
axe and Lighthouse catch only a subset of accessibility issues. They produce a list of violations — not the dated report, statement and evidence trail a reviewer needs.
shadcn/ui is a common modern stack, but the styled layer can leak conformance: focus-ring contrast, target size, combobox keyboard support. You may be flagged on components you assumed were fine.
A full manual WCAG audit is valuable, but it can take time to scope, schedule and complete. Your buyer may need a documented first response before that review is finished.
"One line of code = compliant" widgets are a risky shortcut — the FTC's April 2025 accessiBe order shows why unsupported automated-compliance claims are dangerous. Some buyers now ask directly whether vendors rely on overlays.
The mechanism
Conformance Studio is self-assessment tooling plus document automation. It runs a proven accessibility engine, walks you through the manual checks automation can't see, then turns your findings into artefacts a buyer can review.
Enter your product, entity and the representative page types you tested. This auto-fills every document and signals an honest, defensible scope.
Run a one-line axe-core snippet on your live, logged-in app and import the result — or paste rendered HTML for a built-in static scan. Every finding is captured as dated evidence.
Work through 20 high-impact WCAG 2.2 AA checks, each with a shadcn-specific note telling you where these issues often appear. Mark Pass / Fail / N/A.
Generate the conformance report, accessibility statement, remediation log (+ CSV) and procurement answers. Save as PDF, attach, reply. Done.
What you actually receive
Anyone can give you a list of failing components for free; the code is open. What's painful, time-boxed and worth paying for is everything that turns a scan into documents a buyer can review. That's what you get.
A real, working application (no install, no account, no backend). It ingests genuine axe-core results, drives the manual review, and generates four buyer-review documents from your inputs.
Copy-paste, source-level fixes for the failures that actually recur in a default shadcn/Radix/Tailwind stack — focus-ring contrast, target size, combobox and data-table keyboard support, form-error association, live-region toasts.
A specific, no-fear guide to the law as it really stands in 2026, the 60-minute path, and the 20-criterion manual checklist as an editable spreadsheet. Plus editable statement and questionnaire templates.
Premium, one-time, no subscription
A full manual accessibility audit is still the right path for legal certainty. This gives you a structured first-pass evidence workflow today — once, with a commercial licence.
Positioned below a full external audit and monthly remediation platforms, because this is a focused self-assessment and evidence workflow.

Honest answers
No — and be wary of anything that claims it is. Conformance Studio is self-assessment tooling and document automation. It helps you test, decide and produce a defensible, dated paper trail for buyer review. It is not legal advice and not a substitute for a full manual audit by a qualified professional. Over-claiming compliance is precisely what got overlay vendors into trouble.
Automated scanners detect only a subset of accessibility issues and output a list of violations. They don't cover key manual checks such as keyboard flow, focus order, name/role/value, status messages, and the newer 2.2 items, and they don't produce a conformance report, accessibility statement, remediation log or questionnaire answers. Conformance Studio uses axe-core for the automated checks, then drives the manual review and turns the result into documents a buyer can inspect. The scan is the easy part; the evidence layer is what you're paying for.
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser. The axe-core snippet you run executes on your own page; your scan results, scope details and checklist answers are stored only in your browser's local storage. Nothing is transmitted to us or to any server.
Yes. The Conformance Studio tool, the 20-criterion WCAG 2.2 AA manual checklist, and all four generated documents are framework-agnostic. The only shadcn-specific part is the fix library and the "in a shadcn stack" notes — which you can ignore. The evidence layer works for any React/web product.
Yes — a commercial-use licence is included. You may use the tool to evaluate and document accessibility for client projects and publish the generated documents under your or your client's name. You may not resell or redistribute the tool, templates or guide themselves. Full terms in the bundled licence.
The tool targets WCAG 2.2 AA as a current W3C best-practice target and references EN 301 549, whose currently harmonised web basis remains WCAG 2.1. We ship free updates to buyers when the criteria or guidance materially change. The guide deliberately avoids stating country-specific penalty figures because they vary and change — it points you to the official W3C, ETSI and EAA sources to verify the current position yourself.
