Setting up An Accessibility Dashboard from Scratch with Pa11y on DigitalOcean

Semantics and accessibility are a really important part of developing web pages. This is not only for users with disabilities, but improving accessibility makes your content easier to share with everyone.

I recently discovered pa11y — an open source project that helps users to set up (for free) an accessibility dashboard of their sites. This is a self-hosted nodeJS + mongoDB app, which means you can set it up internally behind a firewall and compare sites in development. It’s also available on Docker and is fully-customizable. You can edit the front end (written in Less) to match any design system and add any features you’d like.

Out of the box, pa11y comes with:

  • Filter system for tasks
  • A visual interface for adding, editing, and removing tasks
  • Overview panel of errors, warnings, and notices based on your selected WCAG preferences (WCAG2AA is default)
  • Downloadable JSON and CSV data
  • 30 days of data stored by default
  • Detailed explanation of accessibility violations

Those are a lot of awesome things! By default, it looks like this (you can see it live at pa11y.una.im):

Pa11y dash defaultPa11y dash default

Okay, so I know I have a little bit of cleanup work to do now on my sites. But before we go into shame 🔔 shame 🔔 mode, let’s learn how to set up our own!

load test with loadimpact.com

Realistic simulated users We simulate traffic exactly how it would happen in real life. No hidden caching or romanticized user behavior.

Simultaneous multi-geo load generation  In a single test, we can generate load from up to 10 different locations simultaneously. We can add even more locations upon request.

Automatic and advanced scripting   Script user scenarios in Lua, using our IDE with code completion, JSON and XML parsing, data parameterization and more. Or analyze a web page and generate a script automatically – no programming required.

Easy-to-use scenario recorders  Record an HTTP session using our proxy recorder or our Chrome Extension and let the simulated users perform the same actions during the test.
