User reviews

handy little tool for wcag audits

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.

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.
