Accessible elements in Webflow
Learn about screen reader and keyboard accessible Webflow elements.
You can find and add elements to your project (e.g., sections, buttons, images, etc.) from the Add Elements panel of the Designer. The elements marked as Accessible in the table below provide screen reader and keyboard navigation support without the need for custom code, though you will need to add focused state styles for some elements to make them fully keyboard accessible.
To make Tab, Dropdown, Slider, and Navbar elements fully keyboard accessible, you’ll need to set a focus style (known as “visual focus”) on the focused state so site visitors can better wayfind when using a keyboard to navigate. Visual focus adds a visible indicator on the active elements while navigating and is necessary for people who primarily use the keyboard to navigate, like power users or people with reduced mobility. Learn more about styling the focused state.
You can also ensure these elements are accessible by using sufficient color contrast between your element’s text and the element or page’s background colors. Learn more about contrast ratios.
