bypasslänkar

Bypasslänkar, often referred to as "jump links" or "skip links" in English, are navigational elements designed to improve accessibility and user experience on websites. Their primary function is to allow users to bypass repetitive content, such as navigation menus or headers, and jump directly to the main content of a page. This is particularly beneficial for users who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, as it reduces the amount of unnecessary information they need to process.

These links are typically hidden until a user focuses on them, often by tabbing through the page. Once focused, they become visible, usually as a discreet link at the very top of the page. Clicking on this link instantly moves the user's focus to a designated anchor point within the main content area. Implementing bypasslänkar is considered a standard accessibility practice and is often a requirement for meeting web content accessibility guidelines (WCAG). They contribute to a more efficient and less frustrating browsing experience for all users, especially those with motor impairments or cognitive differences that make navigating lengthy or complex pages challenging.
