Making Alix, a Chrome Extension for Linting HTML

Read Original

This technical article details the development of 'Alix,' a Chrome extension built to lint HTML for accessibility problems. It explains how the extension leverages advanced CSS selectors (like :not()) to highlight elements lacking proper attributes, such as images without alt text. The post provides a walkthrough of the extension's manifest file, permissions, and popup interface, making it a practical guide for web developers interested in building browser extensions and improving web accessibility.
