Catch Accessibility Issues While You Code

The Blyxo VS Code Extension brings real-time accessibility linting directly into your editor. With 25+ WCAG rules, instant feedback, and one-click quick fixes, you can ship accessible code from the start.

Accessibility Linting, Right in Your Editor

Real-Time Linting

Get instant feedback as you type with 25+ accessibility rules covering WCAG Level A, AA, and AAA. Issues are highlighted directly in your code with clear descriptions and severity levels.

Quick Fixes

Fix common accessibility issues with a single click. Automatically add missing alt text, lang attributes, aria-labels, and more without leaving your editor.

WCAG Compliance

Tests against WCAG 2.1 and 2.2 Level A, AA, and AAA standards. Filter by WCAG level to focus on the compliance requirements that matter most to your project.

Git Pre-Push Hook

Prevent accessibility regressions from reaching production. Install a git pre-push hook that blocks pushes when accessibility issues are detected in your code.
