# Daily Art

# bloop

# Aquascope

A tool that generates interactive visualizations of Rust programs. These visualizations show how Rust's borrow checker interprets a program, and how the program actually executes.

# How Shadow DOM and accessibility are in conflict

An article looking into the consequences derived from the Shadow DOM opaqueness from the assumptions and expectations of ARIA hints.
