Accessibility

Shopware is committed to creating inclusive and barrier-free shopping experiences. Accessibility affects both the core Storefront and all custom themes and extensions. Developers are responsible for ensuring their implementations comply with accessibility standards, such as WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

Accessibility Checklist

Why accessibility matters

• Legal compliance (e.g., EU accessibility regulations)
• Better usability for all users
• Improved SEO and performance
• Future-proof storefront implementations

Shopware continuously introduces accessibility improvements in new releases. Always test extensions with the ACCESSIBILITY_TWEAKS feature flag enabled to ensure compatibility.
