    One of the best free tools for accessibility on the market. It helps me check the web pages I build for any issues that might affect people with disabilities. Plus, it provides detailed guidance on how to fix the problems I find. I'm impressed with Microsoft's commitment to helping those with disabilities and making the web more accessible.
