Accessibility with TYPO3

TYPO3 is aimed at public bodies and supports accessibility well. Decisive are the Fluid template and the editorial maintenance.

Common places for findings

Individual templates without visible focus or with weak contrast, images without alternative text in the file section, accordions and tabs from extensions without keyboard operation, PDF downloads without tags.

First step

Ensure focus styles and contrasts in the template, keep alt texts and heading levels consistent editorially, check the extensions, scan the source code.
