Real A11yAccessibility tooling that works in the real world

Beta (v0.1) — A Chrome extension, Storybook panel, React integration, and testing library, all powered by the same semantic engine.

Get Started

Chrome Extension

🧩

Chrome extension

Open the side panel on any website and explore its DOM, A11y, and TAB views live. Highlights elements on the page as you navigate the tree. No code, no setup.

Install the extension

🌳

One engine, every context

@real-a11y-dev/core extracts the full semantic tree from any DOM — roles, accessible names, focus state, modal context, live regions. Every other package is just a different lens on that tree.

🧪

Test what users actually experience

@real-a11y-dev/testing gives you auditSnapshot(), assertHeadingOrder(), assertNoUnlabeledInteractive(), and a fluent flow() chain — all powered by the real accessibility tree, not synthetic mocks.

⚛️

First-class React support

useSemanticTree() and useActiveModal() subscribe to DOM mutations via useSyncExternalStore — concurrent-mode safe, no boilerplate. Drop in and the tree panel appears.

📖

Storybook panel out of the box

Install @real-a11y-dev/storybook-addon and every story gets an A11y tree panel showing the semantic structure, heading outline, and tab sequence — updated live as the story renders.

🔒

Shadow DOM isolation by default

The semantic-navigator embed mounts inside a ShadowRoot so its styles never leak into your app and your app's styles never override the panel. CSS conflicts are eliminated at the architecture level.
