Digital content accessible to everyone

Barrierefreie Medienintegration mit Anura

Digital accessibility is now a key quality feature of modern websites and content platforms. With brix:anura, we enable digital content to be implemented efficiently and flexibly while making it accessible to all users – regardless of individual limitations or assistive technologies used.

The fact that brix:anura also meets the highest requirements is demonstrated by the practical example of E-Pics at ETH Zurich – a powerful image platform for research, teaching, and the public.

The platform meets high standards of digital accessibility and is based on recognized standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines – WCAG. ETH's official accessibility statement transparently shows how these requirements are implemented.

Accessibility as an integral part of the platform

From the outset, brix:anura was developed in such a way that accessibility was not added as an afterthought, but was structurally incorporated into the design. The platform ensures that content is semantically correct, technically well-structured, and optimally usable for assistive technologies.

Key principles for accessible media integration with brix:anura include:

  • Logically structured content and clean HTML semantics
  • Stable layouts that remain usable even when enlarged up to 400%
  • Full keyboard operability
  • Screen reader compatibility
  • Sufficient color contrast and understandable content

This basis facilitates the implementation of accessible websites, even with complex content and asset structures.
