1 Design tools

When optimizing your product for accessibility, design with accessibility principles in mind. Consider aspects such as color contrast, font size, readability, layout, navigation, and feedback. There are tools that can help you check and improve these aspects, such as Adobe XD with its built-in accessibility checker; Stark which is a plugin for Sketch, Figma, and Adobe XD to help design inclusive and accessible products; and InVision's Freehand feature which allows you to collaborate and get feedback from your team and users. These tools can help simulate vision impairments such as color blindness or low vision, test for contrast, color, and typography, and conduct accessibility testing and interviews with diverse users.

2 Development tools

Once you have designed your product with accessibility in mind, you need to develop it according to the web standards and best practices for accessibility. This means using semantic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as well as following the guidelines of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). There are many development tools that can help you code and debug your product for accessibility, such as axe, Lighthouse, and React A11y. Axe can help you find and fix accessibility issues in your web or mobile applications. Lighthouse can measure and improve the performance, quality, and accessibility of your web pages. React A11y can enable accessibility warnings in your development console and identify and fix issues related to keyboard navigation, focus management, aria attributes, and more. These tools can provide detailed reports and recommendations to help you audit your web pages for accessibility alongside other metrics such as speed, SEO, and best practices.

The final step to optimize your product for accessibility is to test it with real users and devices. This means conducting usability testing and user research with diverse and representative users, including those with disabilities or impairments, as well as testing your product on different browsers, screen sizes, and assistive technologies. There are several platforms that can help you do this, such as UserTesting, BrowserStack, and Loop11. UserTesting is a platform that can help you get feedback from real users on your product. BrowserStack is a platform that can help you test your product on different browsers, devices, and operating systems. Loop11 is a platform that can help you conduct remote usability testing and user research on your product. All of these platforms have features that can help you test for accessibility using various tools and extensions.
