Industry guides

Shopify accessibility, industry by industry

What a shopper struggles with depends on what you sell. A fashion store fails on colour swatches and size pickers, a food store on allergen text, an electronics store on specification tables. Each guide names the barriers that come up in its industry and the WCAG criteria behind them, so you know what to test first.

Whatever you sell, start with one real purchase: open a product, choose a variant, add it to the cart and reach checkout using only the keyboard, then again with a screen reader. Every store has different failures, and an automated scan finds only part of them, so treat each guide as a checklist to test, not a list of what your store has.
