Re:Show HN: Button Contrast Checker by lucalanca on Thursday September 19, 2019 @08:10AM (#21015411)
Disclaimer: I'm the OP.

There are tons of contrast checkers out there, this does some things differently:

- Checks all buttons and links on a webpage.

- Tests default, hover and focus states.

- Tests Button Background vs. Adjacent Background (non-text contrast).

- You can share results with your team.

- It’s free.

Here are a few notes on some technologies used:

- AWS Lambda Functions (through Serverless Framework)

- DynamoDB to store results (they take a while to calculate)

- Puppeteer: we simulate real "hover" and "focus".

It was the first time using these technologies, but I'm very happy how great they fit together.
