About A11y Miyar — Accessibility & UAE DLS Audits
A11y Miyar is a complete accessibility auditing toolkit that lives inside your
browser's DevTools. It combines automated scanning (powered by axe-core, the
open-source engine behind Lighthouse) with guided manual testing — because
automated tools alone catch only 30–50% of WCAG issues.
AUTOMATED SCANNING
• One-click axe-core audit of the inspected page, including iframes
• Pick your target: WCAG 2.0 A/AA, 2.1 AA, 2.2 AA, or all rules (+ best practices)
• Findings sorted by severity with the offending HTML, fix guidance, and docs links
• Click any finding to highlight the element on the page, or jump straight to it
in the Elements panel
• "Highlight all" paints every violation on the page, color-coded by severity
GUIDED MANUAL TESTS (WIZARDS)
• 10 step-by-step wizards for what machines can't judge: keyboard navigation,
focus visibility & order, headings, landmarks, alt-text quality, zoom/reflow,
screen readers, motion, and forms
• One yes/no question at a time — the verdict is computed from your answers
• Every "No" becomes a recorded finding; optionally attach a note and pick the
offending element directly on the page
• Interactive helpers do the setup: numbered tab stops, heading outline,
landmark overlay, alt-text overlay
USER FLOW RECORDING
• Press record, then use the site: menus, modals, multi-page checkouts
• Every page and UI state is scanned automatically; findings are de-duplicated
and labeled with the page they came from
AND MORE
• Scan history per URL: "3 new · 5 fixed since last scan" with NEW badges
• Stale-results warning when the page changes after a scan
• Color-contrast eyedropper with WCAG AA/AAA verdicts — sample any pixel on screen
• Export reports as JSON, CSV, or a shareable standalone HTML file
• Options: default rule set, flow scan interval, English or Arabic (RTL) interface
• Keyboard shortcuts: S scan, R record flow, X clear, C contrast, 1–6 tabs, / filter
NEW IN v1.15
• 🔊 Screen reader tab — what a screen reader actually receives: the announced
reading order with every name, role and state; a live-region monitor that
classifies each page change as ANNOUNCED, VIA FOCUS, MAY BE MISSED or SILENT;
a focus trace (focus lost after a delete, focus escaping a modal, hidden or
unnamed targets) with a keyboard auto-walk; SPA route-change checks (stale
title, duplicate H1, focus stuck); missing state on custom controls; link
behaviour (new tab, download, external, href="#"); Arabic/English voice
switching; a bilingual AR/EN page comparison; the real browser accessibility
tree (Chromium, opt-in); a journey transcript for recorded flows
• Every screen reader finding ships a fix: current HTML → corrected snippet
(HTML/React/Vue) with an inline diff, Apply-on-page with re-verify, Copy,
Inspect, and a spoken preview of what the screen reader would say
• Screen reader score and Top 5 to fix; findings flow into Issues/Jira/Azure
tickets with a "How to verify" step
• Redesigned panel: one Run button, an Overview tab with per-audit cards and
Top issues, contextual toolbars with filters on every tab, scan presets
(Recommended / Strict WCAG / Everything — best-practice rules on by default),
dark mode and full RTL
NEW SINCE v1.0
• 🇦🇪 UAE Design System (DLS) audit — 13 checks against the official AEGov design
system (mandated for UAE federal entities): component adoption, fonts, type
scale, the real 115-token color palette with nearest-token suggestions,
bilingual/RTL, button sizing — with gap highlighting on the page, per-element
detail, fixes, and links to the standard
• Fix suggestions for every finding: copy-ready corrected snippets
(HTML/React/Vue), computed passing contrast colors — optionally from the UAE
DLS palette — live Preview fix with Undo, and one-click Auto-fix page
• Two-way navigation: click a finding to highlight it on the page, or click a
highlighted element on the page to jump to its finding
• Reports with evidence: annotated screenshots embedded in HTML/PDF exports,
rule summary, per-element selectors
• Ticketing exports: GitHub issues markdown, Jira bulk-import CSV, Azure DevOps
work items
• Violation filter/search, scan-history trend charts, loading estimates for
heavy pages
• Full Arabic interface and content, incl. all manual test wizards and help
PRIVACY
Everything runs locally in your browser. No data is collected, transmitted,
