Accessibility

We want themeux.com, our docs and our themes to work for everyone, including people who use a keyboard, a screen reader, zoom or high-contrast settings. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA.

What we do

• Every page can be used with a keyboard alone, with a visible focus outline and a “Skip to content” link.
• Text colours are checked against their backgrounds; body and label text meets at least 4.5:1 contrast.
• Images that carry information have text descriptions; decorative ones are hidden from screen readers.
• Links that open another site or a new tab say so.
• Forms have labels, and errors are announced to screen readers.
• Smooth scrolling and animation are turned off when your system asks for reduced motion.
• Pages reflow to a single column on small screens and at high zoom.

What we know isn’t right yet

• The live demo stores run on Shopify, so Shopify controls parts of them, such as checkout.
• Some doc screenshots show interface text that isn’t repeated in the surrounding words.

Our themes

Accessibility is built into the themes too: keyboard-operable menus and drawers, visible focus, contrast-checked colour presets, and a storefront that still works without JavaScript. Colours or content you change in your own store may affect this.

Tell us

If something on the site or in a theme is hard to use, write to support@themeux.com with the page and what happened. We reply within one day and will fix what we can, or send you the information another way.
