Accessibility in Webmag
What accessibility means – and how Webmag supports it
Accessibility means designing digital content in a way that makes it usable for everyone – regardless of physical or technical limitations. This includes people with visual or hearing impairments, motor disabilities or cognitive challenges. Situational factors, such as poor lighting or limited internet access, also make accessible design relevant for all users.
At Webmag, we aim to provide a platform that supports modern standards and makes it easy to create accessible content. Some accessibility features are already covered by the system, while others depend on how you design your publications. We also offer custom solutions on request.
For any additional requirements, feel free to contact us at support@webmag.io.
