Equalize Digital, a WordPress accessibility products and services company, has added a new frontend highlighting feature to its free accessibility checker plugin, which is used to perform audits on self-hosted sites. The feature was funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), through Equalize Digital’s consulting work on the new NASA websites.
NASA recently launched the beta version of its WordPress-powered flagship site, which WordCamp US attendees may hear about next week during the team’s sessions, including Friday’s keynote address: For All Userkind: NASA Web Modernization and WordPress and another presentation titled Hands on with NASA’s new digital platform.
Equalize Digital was contracted to perform accessibility testing, user testing with screen reader users, and provide accessibility governance recommendations.
