The use of the Bootstrap framework can help in achieving some WCAG goals such as ‘Visual Presentation’ (AAA), 'Parsing' (A), ‘Orientation’ (AA), ‘Reflow’ (AA) and ‘Text Spacing’ (AA). See the Bootstrap chapter ["Accessibility"](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/getting-started/accessibility/) for an explanation of WCAG and where to find additional information.
