Accessibility Checker

Who Is This For?

Web developers, UX designers, and digital compliance managers who need to ensure their websites meet accessibility standards. This skill is particularly valuable for teams working on public-facing websites, government platforms, or applications that must comply with accessibility regulations and want to proactively identify and fix accessibility issues before they impact users.

What Does It Do?

The Accessibility Checker performs comprehensive audits of websites against Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) standards, identifying potential barriers for users with disabilities. It analyzes elements like color contrast, alt text, ARIA labels, keyboard navigation, and semantic HTML structure to generate detailed reports of compliance issues. The skill provides actionable recommendations for fixes, prioritized by severity and impact, while explaining the reasoning behind each suggestion to help developers understand and implement lasting solutions.

When Should You Use This?

Use this skill during development sprints to catch accessibility issues early, before major deployments, or when conducting periodic compliance audits of existing websites. It's especially useful when preparing for accessibility certifications, responding to user feedback about accessibility challenges, or updating legacy websites to meet modern accessibility standards. This checker is also invaluable when expanding services to regions with strict accessibility regulations or when serving audiences with diverse accessibility needs.
