Workflow

1. Run combined lint - Check both accessibility and HTML standards
2. Parse JSON results - Identify issues by severity
3. Prioritize issues - critical > serious > error > warning
4. Apply fixes - Address high-priority issues first
5. Re-run to verify - Confirm fixes resolved issues

Common Fixes

Missing alt text

<!-- Before -->
<img src="photo.jpg">

<!-- After -->
<img src="photo.jpg" alt="Description of image">

Low contrast

/* Before: #999 on #fff = 2.85:1 */
.text { color: #999; }

/* After: #595959 on #fff = 7:1 */
.text { color: #595959; }
