Selfish Reasons for Accessible UIs

Building accessible UIs enhances debug capability by making the structure easier to understand, especially as opposed to confusing 'div soup'.

Naming and labeling elements correctly using ARIA roles can simplify the UI development process, making the code more readable and maintainable.

Accessible UIs improve testability by allowing use of semantic selectors rather than arbitrary classes, resulting in more resilient tests.

Website accessibility benefits keyboard power users, allowing for a more seamless interaction without relying heavily on a mouse.

Although accessibility is often viewed as a moral imperative, there are pragmatic, 'selfish' reasons for developers to prioritize it.
