I stumbled upon this problem when the company I was at faced an accessibility lawsuit and needed engineers to fix them. Though there were accessibility champions, I fell into the category of average engineer who had very little experience with correcting/testing these tickets.

With jargony documentation of accessibility guidelines and bad descriptions from audit, it was very frustrating to work with. I could not easily fix them without seeking help.

My friend Michael and I started working on this problem and are excited to launch:

TestParty’s first product is a VSCode extension called Pregame. It scans your code inside the IDE and provides code suggestions for accessibility violations. In your side bar, you will see why it fails/passes guidelines and gives you some accessibility training in-context. The link below is the direct link to the VSCode Extension:
