A powerful accessibility checker for the Craft ecosystem. Editoria11y is now Craft-ready
At Digital Pulse, we believe that accessibility is not a “nice to have”. It’s a key part of building strong, future-proof digital experiences. Today, we're proud to extend the Craft CMS ecosystem with a proven accessibility solution
The accessibility checker created by Princeton University is now fully compatible with Craft, made possible by our very own Digital Pulse team.
Editoria11y (pronounced “Editorially”) performs real-time accessibility checks and gives content editors clear guidance for improving content accessibility. Feedback is directly linked to the page content and components, helping them create pages that are clearer, more inclusive and easier to navigate.
Now, that same helpful tool is available for Craft CMS.
Why bring Editoria11y to Craft CMS?
Craft stands out as a CMS built with flexibility, performance and user experience in mind. With its commitment to AA conformance with key web accessibility standards WCAG 2.2 and ATAG 2.0, Craft already offers a solid foundation for accessibility.
What was missing, however, was a simple way for editors to get real-time feedback inside the Craft control panel, and that’s where we stepped in.
Our development team worked on adapting and extending the functionality so Editoria11y could integrate smoothly with Craft.
