Improving Web Accessibility with Drupal: 7 Practical Tips

Accessibility

A Specbee blog by Priyanka Phukan offers practical accessibility guidance tailored for Drupal users. The seven tips cover semantic HTML, keyboard navigation, color contrast, alt text, accessible forms, testing, and ongoing audits. Each section clearly links accessibility benefits to business value, including user reach, legal compliance, and brand credibility.

Drupal’s accessibility features are well-articulated. Core themes like Olivero and Claro meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards. Modules such as Webform, Editoria11y, and Accessibility Scanner help implement and maintain accessible design. The use of Ansible, axe-core, and screen readers like NVDA is also recommended for comprehensive testing.

However, the post reads partly like promotional content for Specbee’s services, with several marketing flourishes. The actual Drupal insights are accurate and useful but not deeply technical. Still, it’s a helpful primer for teams seeking structured, actionable starting points for accessibility improvements using Drupal.
