Supercharge accessibility. A series of icons quickly appear and disappear on screen before we show examples of all the software products you can make accessible with Stark: a website, SaaS product, mobile app, and online shop. First, we talk about the plugins by going over all the tools in the Stark menu—Contrast Checker, Color Suggestions, Vision Simulator, Landmarks, and Focus Order—which can be found in Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, and even our browser extension for Chrome, Edge, and Brave. We then turn to stark for Mac, providing a walkthrough of how to sync and import Sketch and Figma files, view the results of automatic accessibility audits, and seamlessly fix the issues we find. Once you're done applying changes, we show you how to connect with the plugins to make live updates and export code snippets for developers. All in one place and automated for maximum efficiency.

We conceptualized. We built. We put no limits on what we wanted to achieve! We tested, and we jammed. Most importantly, we continually asked for and incorporated feedback from our beta testers. Today, we’re proud to announce that Stark for Mac is available for everyone to download in the Mac App Store.
Over the years, many of you have told us that you wish there were a faster way to inspect design files for accessibility compliance issues.
Stark for Mac checks your Sketch and Figma files within seconds after importing them, so you can find and fix accessibility issues in record time. We’ll analyze any issues with your contrast, typography, touch targets, alt text, and more, then give you suggestions for how you can resolve these issues to meet the latest accessibility standards.
Now, you’ve got one place to:
• Get clear and actionable tips to help you write better alt text for the images in your design that require it
• Check your contrast ratios for text and colors, and get smart Color Suggestions for meeting the latest compliance standards
• Generate simulations of designs to understand how people with different vision types will see and experience them
• Make anything you design and build easy to navigate by defining Landmarks and using the Focus Order tool to ensure no one gets lost while interacting with your mobile app, website, and more
• Ensure you’re using font sizes with the best readability for most people
We hope you’re as excited about these new features as we are. To get started with Stark for Mac, download it from the App Store and create a free account.
