## What it is
An ESLint plugin that statically checks JSX elements for accessibility (a11y) issues in React applications. It analyzes the AST to catch common accessibility mistakes like missing alt text, improper ARIA usage, and non-semantic interactive elements.

## Use cases
- lint react components for accessibility issues
- catch missing alt attributes on images in jsx
- enforce aria attribute correctness in eslint
- check jsx for a11y violations in ci
- audit react app accessibility at build time

## When to choose
- you build React apps with JSX and want automated accessibility linting
- you want to catch a11y errors early in code review or CI
- you use ESLint and want a11y rules integrated into your existing setup

## When to avoid
- you need runtime accessibility testing of the rendered DOM (use axe-core instead)
- your project does not use JSX or React
- you need full accessibility compliance auditing rather than static checks

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: linter, accessibility, testing
- domain: accessibility, frontend, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: -
- tags: eslint-plugin, jsx, react, a11y, static-analysis, nodejs, javascript
