Magento / Adobe Commerce accessibility

Magento (Adobe Commerce) accessibility requires the merchant or systems integrator to layer WCAG 2.2 AA compliance on top of a flexible-but-complex e-commerce platform — Adobe publishes accessibility documentation but the merchant configuration, theme, and customisations determine the rendered conformance.

What does accessibility mean on Magento / Adobe Commerce?

Magento powers many mid-market and enterprise e-commerce sites where accessibility is a procurement requirement (EAA in EU). The platform's complexity (layered checkout, multi-store, B2B features) introduces specific failure modes.
