Platform
Wix
Wix generates a sound technical structure and ships a built-in accessibility assistant. The editor's visual freedom remains total: that is where the gaps happen.

On Wix you do not touch the code: the platform generates the markup and maintains its base. Your room for manoeuvre, and therefore your responsibility, concentrates on what the editor lets you decide: colours, text, images, animations and content order.
What the platform brings
- A built-in accessibility assistant that reviews the site and flags missing text alternatives or heading order to revisit.
- A generated structure that handles for you the technical foundations often broken elsewhere.
- An alt text field per image, directly in the editor.
What stays in your hands
- Contrast: total freedom over colours and fonts makes barely readable text the most common defect of visually built sites.
- Animations and carousels: nice in a demo, they must remain keyboard operable and must not scroll out of control.
- Heading hierarchy: the editor lets you pick a heading style for its size; the logical outline of the page suffers.
- Text alternatives: the field exists, it still needs a useful description rather than a file name.
An honest note about our data
Our 2026 panels, focused on established French e-commerce, contained no Wix site: we therefore publish no statistic specific to this platform. A scan remains the way to place your own site, in seconds and with nothing to install.
Frequently asked questions
Is Wix's accessibility assistant enough to be compliant?
It is a very good starting habit: it guides basic fixes inside the editor. It does not replace an independent measurement of the published site, notably on the real contrast of your colours, nor a keyboard check of your animations. The two complement each other.
Can a Wix site really meet the EAA?
Yes. The generated base is sound and the essential levers (alternatives, contrast, headings, animations) are in your hands inside the editor. Compliance depends on your content and design choices, not on a platform limitation.
