Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

Accessibility warnings for dynamic web content. Join the conversation on Slack.
Usage

Then, run your phantomjs browser tests to get accessibility warning logs, or open your browser and get automatic warnings in the JavaScript console.
Phantomjs tests

Browser Console
How it works
accesslint.js runs assertions from the aXe-core accessibility library wherever you include the script once on page load, and again for each DOM change event.
This feature gives you feedback on new content introduced via AJAX, for example, or updates to a single page app.
