How to Improve the Accessibility of Strapi-Powered Websites

The article discusses the importance of web accessibility and how it can be improved using Strapi CMS. Accessibility is defined as designing products or services to be usable by people with disabilities, ensuring that everyone can benefit from digital content regardless of their abilities or circumstances. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and cover a wide range of criteria for making web content more accessible. Strapi CMS allows developers to easily integrate accessibility into their development process, with plugins like the All-in-One Accessibility Plugin developed by Skynet Technologies. This plugin improves websites' compliance with WCAG and ADA standards and offers features such as high contrast, content scaling, accessibility profiles, and highlight links. Practical ways to improve website accessibility include using semantic HTML, providing alternative text for images, using high-contrast colors, and captioning multimedia content. The article encourages learning more about accessibility standards and exploring additional Strapi plugins from the marketplace.
