Web audit interface
a11y-scanner
A web accessibility scanner powered by a11y-engine. It runs WCAG audits against a target URL and turns engine output into progress UI, scorecards, findings, exports, and actionable reports.
a11y-scanner is the user-facing web application for the a11y-engine ecosystem. It accepts a target URL, optional GitHub repository context, selected WCAG axe tags, engine choices, viewport settings, color scheme, crawl depth, timeout strategy, and AI audience options.
The scanner delegates the actual audit work to @diegovelasquezweb/a11y-engine, then renders enriched findings with compliance score, WCAG status, severity totals, persona impact groups, quick wins, detected stack, source-pattern findings, screenshots, and AI-enhanced remediation details when available.
The app supports local execution through LOCAL_MODE and remote execution through a GitHub Actions workflow. That workflow installs browsers, runs the a11y-audit CLI, bundles JSON results, checklist, PDF, screenshots, and exposes artifacts back to the web UI.
