@estelle A few suggestions for you to sift through, but mostly good.

Additionally, the accessibility tree often contains information on what can be done with an element: a link can be _followed_, a text input can be _typed into_, etc.

While still in draft form within the Web Incubator Community Group as of April 2022, the **[Accessibility Object Model](https://wicg.github.io/aom/explainer.html) (AOM)** intends to incubate APIs that make it easier to express accessibility semantics and potentially allow read access to the computed accessibility tree.

Color wheels are convenient for comparing colors expressed in polar or cylindrical coordinates, like [`hsl()`](/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/Values/color_value/hsl), [`hwb()`](/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/Values/color_value/hwb), or [`lch()`](/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/Values/color_value/lch).

In such cases, _complementary colors_ are often found opposite on the same diameter. Similarly, _monochromatic colors_ – colors of the same _tone_ but of different _shades_ – are located on the same radius, and _triadic colors_ – three colors evenly spaced around the color wheel that lead to colors that work well together – are also easy to find.

I can understand why you removed that last bit, but it made the sentence read strangely.

Continuous integration (CI) is a software development practice in which changes to the source are frequently integrated into the main codebase.

It's an important practice whenever a team of developers is working on a shared codebase. In this situation, different developers might be making overlapping changes to the code at the same time, each in their personal branches. Frequent integration of each developer's changes makes it much less likely that conflicts will occur, and much easier to resolve them when they do.
