In their own words
Accessibility Inspector
Accessibility Inspector is Apple’s free macOS tool for examining accessibility information in app interfaces. It displays an element’s accessibility properties, available actions, and position in the view hierarchy. Audits identify common issues such as insufficient contrast, clipped text, and missing descriptions. Results can be saved as HTML reports containing summaries, screenshots, issue descriptions, and fix suggestions. Accessibility audits can also run in UI tests through performAccessibilityAudit(for:_:). The target menu includes apps on Mac and selected iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, or tvOS devices. Open it from Xcode through Xcode > Open Developer Tool > Accessibility Inspector. Apple’s listing describes Xcode as Mac-only, requiring macOS 26.2 or later and an Apple M1 chip or later, and labels it Free. Clearing reported issues does not prove complete accessibility; Apple recommends additional checks with assistive apps such as VoiceOver.
Unity Version Control
Unity Version Control is an engine-agnostic source control tool for game development teams working with large files and binaries. It supports centralized and distributed workflows with branching and merging, as well as file-based workflows for artists. Smart Locks check that a user has the latest version before allowing a file lock, helping reduce merge conflicts. Teams can use Unity-hosted cloud servers or run the server on their own infrastructure. Desktop clients are available for Windows, macOS on Apple Silicon or Intel, and Linux. Named integrations and supported tools include JIRA, Rider, TeamCity, Jenkins, Bamboo, Unreal Engine and Discord. The free tier is free and includes unlimited cloud seats, 25 GB storage per organization per month and 100 GB egress per month; usage beyond included limits is pay-as-you-go. Unity lists on-prem seats at $38 a month. Upload and download communications use SSL, and permissions can be set for repositories, branches and individual items.
