Configuration (Vite+)

import { defineConfig } from "@vizejs/vite-plugin/vite-plus";

export default defineConfig({
  lint: {
    vize: {
      "preset": "incremental",
      "rules": {
        "a11y/alt-text": "warn"
      }
    },
  },
});

vp run lint

Bad

The image submit control supplies only its image URL; it has no alt text describing the action.

<template>
  <input type="image" src="/submit.png" />
</template>

Good

alt="Submit search" gives the image control an accessible name that describes submitting the search.

<template>
  <input type="image" src="/submit.png" alt="Submit search" />
</template>

Good avoids this rule's finding under the configuration above; other rules may still report diagnostics.
