Catch Accessibility Issues As You Code
Accessibility issues cost 25x more to fix post-release than during development, yet most tools only catch them after the fact. BrowserStack's Accessibility DevTools lints your code for WCAG violations in real-time, right inside your IDE.

BrowserStack's Accessibility DevTools

What makes it worth trying:

  • Integrates with Copilot, Claude, and Cursor for fix suggestions
  • Scans rendered components via MCP
  • Blocks inaccessible code at the pre-commit level

Works across VS Code, JetBrains, Cursor, and more. Currently free.
