Drupal, an open-source Content Management System (CMS), has released a formal ‘accessibility statement’ outlining how Drupal can be used to create an accessible website.

The Drupal CMS has seen a significant increase in popularity, in part due to the fact that it’s free and in part due to its wealth of features. Although early versions of Drupal had some accessibility options, these features have vastly improved with the latest version.

This announcement cements Drupal as a viable free accessible CMS alternative to other popular free CMS products such as Joomla.

The accessibility statement highlights the new features in Drupal, and how developers can use these features to create accessible websites. It also provides examples of accessible Drupal-created websites and a roadmap for future accessibility development.
