Coding for accessibility? You should get familiar with the accessibility tree, a structure produced by platform Accessibility APIs running parallel to the DOM, which exposes accessibility information to assistive technologies such as screen readers. There are multiple tools for visualizing this tree; in this lesson we'll look at Chrome and Microsoft Edge. For more on Accessibility APIs, refer to this [amazing article by Leonie Watson](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2015/03/web-accessibility-with-accessibility-api/). For a how-to on setting up the Chrome Accessibility Inspector, visit [bit.ly/chrome-a11y](http://bit.ly/chrome-a11y).

Nightmare is a high-level browser automation library.

The goal is to expose just a few simple methods, and have an API that feels synchronous for each block of scripting, rather than deeply nested callbacks. It's designed for automating tasks across sites that don't have APIs.

If you want to improve a REST API beyond GET/POST&PUT and DELETE the next step would be adding the push functionality to send new data into your web applications. With ASP.NET Core and SignalR you can add this functionality with ease and keep your application up to date without letting the clients reloading their page manually.

Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to make creating and changing any kind of text very efficient. It is included as "vi" with most UNIX systems and with Apple OS X.

Every programmer starting to work in a *nix environment eventually finds themselves in VIM, the default text editor. Often by mistake! Because VIM lacks the typical polished GUI of normal programs, it can be hard to discover the correct sequence of commands to even exit the program. Once you learn how to exit VIM, then the next task is to also learn how to make VIM do what you want -while- exiting!

In this lesson we cover 7 different ways of exiting VIM, whether you are in EX mode or Command (also known as Escape) mode, whether you are editing a single file or several at once.
