Q1 2026: Library 3.x rewrite
  • Merge Editoria11y and Sa11y rulesets. Since the fork, Sa11y wrote ~50 additional tests and adopted ESM tooling, and Editoria11y implemented performance improvements and added parameters to enable real-time checking. Sa11y 4.2.2 and Editoria11y 3.0.0 will begin our shared future.
  • Add "split configuration" support to allow separate rulesets for developers and content creators.
  • Add machine translations for Chinese, Danish, Dutch, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian Bokmål, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Spanish, Swedish and Ukrainian as templates for human refinement.
  • Current status: coding work is finished; will tag release after updating documentation and demos.
