TYPO3 Accessibility: Working with images

TYPO3

Show in app

Description

Including images in TYPO3 websites in an accessible manner is important to ensure that users with disabilities can perceive and understand the visual content.

Goals

  • I understand the importance of accessible images and their impact on providing inclusive user experiences on TYPO3 websites.
  • I know that text on images should be avoided because screen readers cannot read it. 
  • I can differentiate between the different types of images and can advise on the usage of alternative texts for images.
  • I am aware of best practices for writing alternative texts for images, including being concise, descriptive, and contextually relevant.
  • I know how to add metadata for images in the TYPO3 backend.
  • I can verify and test the accessibility of images by reviewing and evaluating the implementation of alternative texts in TYPO3.
