An accessibility testing suite (lemmy.world)

As I take on the role of a teacher, I am beginning to realise just how much of our documents aren't accessible. The university is pushing us to make everything accessible without a sensible pathway, but I'm going to try my best and make sure my students can access my documents without hindrance.

Currently I am trying to make my PDFs UA2 compatible using LaTeX. I also want to make sure my documents are colour blind friendly. A colour-blind simulator software would be great.

Is there like an "accessibility" suite one can self host to pass documents to check for various accessibility parameters?

Although it may not be ideal for a large document, I have used the Coblis for individual figures that I'm worried about. I usually find small tweaks to the colors can make them much more readily differentiable in the simulator.
