a11y.css Chrome Extension - A Tool for Evaluating HTML Code Quality

a11y.css is a Chrome extension that originally began as a bookmarklet inserting a CSS file into page coding. This file is designed to alert developers of potential risks and errors in the HTML code. By integrating it as an external stylesheet, it can provide a rough estimate of a site's quality. The extension enhances this notion by incorporating additional tools for assessing alt and title attributes on images, outlining focus for keyboard navigation, and indicating used languages based on lang attributes.

handy little tool for wcag audits

Jonathan PANSIOT, 2022-08-31

Great, except with the extension you have to toggle it a few times depending on what state you last left it in or you won't see anything.

Lukasz Teranet, 2022-05-05

This is a great effort and it tackles a good amount of details that are commonly missed but it doesn't (from our testing) account for color contrast issues and other commonly found issues when doing audits.
