    Axe DevTools has been a very useful tool for catching accessibility issues early in development. It integrates seamlessly into the browser and provides clear, actionable feedback that helps improve accessibility without slowing down the workflow. While it's not a complete replacement for manual testing, it's an excellent first line of defense.
