BOSA Accessibility Check is a client-side JavaScript application that checks a HTML document or source code, and detects violations of a defined coding standard. Comes with standards that cover the three conformance levels of the W3C's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 and the U.S. Section 508 legislation.

Write a document describing what the tool does and _does not_ do vs Accessibility #3

Closed bdeclerc closed 5 years ago

We'll need to write, next to the Readme, a more elaborate document describing the relationship of this tool vs the WCAG and EU guidelines, since it inherently cannot cover 100% of the accessibility rules (for example, it can only validate if there's a filled in alt-tag on an image, not if the content of that alt-tag is an accurate description of the image, same for form-labels.

@stefanruijsenaars note: this is likely a task we will outsource to someone else, your talents are better used in developing the tools than in documenting accessibility guidelines :)
