WCAG is a part of the letter M in MVP (Minimum Viable Product)

Minimum viable product that is not accessible is not really minimum. And then also the WCAG on level AA is the minimum, a baseline.

If this MVP will run in EU’s public sector even WCAG 2.1 on level AA alone is not the minimum.

Please read and understand – and try to build on the knowledge part as well.
