Folks,



I have never used sublime as an editor, but I have someone that is using it
with PHP. I was wondering if there is an accessibility checker that can be
added to sublime to help sighted people capture issues.



I already got this for ARIA:

I do need an accessibility checker though. Any help will be highly
appreciated.

Check out this GitHub project for adding accessibility autocompletes to Sublime:
https://github.com/Yago/ST3-Accessibility
Sublime itself is not accessible (or asn't when I tested it with a
screen reader), so I have not tested the quality of this work. But it
is a good place to start, and if something is not right, the users can
help point it out and fix it, the beauty of GitHub.

I concur it isn't accessible. If you know how to code, you can get the
basic editor to work, but it isn't fun. The big power of sublime is the
command pallet, ctrl shift p, but that is not at all accessible. I never
seen talk about making it more accessible.

Sublime's competitors are github's atom and MS vs code. There's some talk
about atom but they seem to have either put it in the corner and walked
away or pass the blame to something else. Vs code has a few people who
work on making the accessibility better, but has a number of issues,
however is decent.
