summary
Argues the web degrades because teams trade quality for hype and convenience and offers a concrete toolchain fix: webhint.io — a CLI/NPM module plus editor extensions and CI hooks that crawl a site and report accessibility, security (via sneak), performance, PWA and interoperability problems. It runs as part of deploys, outputs HTML/CSV, is customizable with user hints, and prevents mistakes earlier in the build. Shows the tool works in real projects and reduces regressions.
