MAWD: Simple accessibility testing for developers

Hi everyone, I'm excited to launch the beta of MAWD to the Product Hunt community today! As a web developer, I always found the accessibility guidelines to be pretty confusing, and quite difficult to interpret at times. It would be ideal if you could just run your website through a tool that checked it against the guidelines, but that isn't possible. A lot of the guidelines check for things that cannot be determined programmatically, like whether there are clear validation errors in a form. With MAWD, I've taken the accessibility guidelines and transformed them into a decision engine to determine whether there are any issues. MAWD asks you, the developer, questions when it is unsure. It takes the analysis of the page content and your responses to give you an accessibility report. This report explains clearly what each issue is and how to fix it. For the beta, MAWD only covers 4 of the WCAG guidelines, but there will be more coming soon. It's got a month's free trial, so plenty of time for you to give it a try and fix up a website. I really hope that MAWD will help make the web more accessible for all. Pop a message in here or tweet me @myaccessibleweb if you have comments or questions. Thanks so much, Fiona
