Description

  • get minimal reproducible examples of a11y failures
  • decide on an automated tool that checks for accessibility violations in the pptx format
  • Pandoc's pptx writer is quite constrained; figure out if it's possible if it's possible even in principle to make it emit whatever is required. If the constraint is with Pandoc, then we need an upstream fix first.

Research direction

No repository files or tests are named. Start by producing minimal reproducible examples of accessibility failures, then investigate automated accessibility checking for PPTX and the constraints of Pandoc's PPTX writer. Done means the failures, checking approach, and any required upstream fix or feasibility limit are documented.
