Official User Guide

At the very top right portion of every web page, the Example access Help Docs button is a link that directs you to the Deque User Guide. When clicked from any part of the axe Monitor tool, it will send you to the specific portion of the User Guide which relates to the page you were on when clicked.

This guide provided by the Web Accessibility Team is to provide new-users a jump start with getting acclimated to the tool. Advanced explanations or questions can be provided within the User Guide.
