Pyatspi Dogtail Gnome Accessibility Gui Inspect Tool For Linux A11Y

This article highlights various accessibility tools and frameworks like Pyatspi, dogtail Gnome, Appium Linux Accessibility, and Pywinauto. It also stresses the significance of readbility.js and Meilisearch for enhancing web history search and incorporating a11y into Firefox and GNOME’s ATK browsers.

does appium have linux accessibility implementation?

pywinauto

bookmark_history_search sucks. it does not include webpage summaries, only title, which makes searching the history very hard. the solution is to use readbility.js to visit and summarize these pages, and update these documents in meilisearch.

a11y is the general term for accessibility, for web browsers like firefox. however, there’s implementation for gnome internally.
