Accessible Content

Words are interface. Every label, every heading, every error message is a design decision. This skill ensures content works for screen readers, for people reading in a second language, for people under stress, and for people who just need things to be clear.

When to Use

• Writing interface labels, button text, or form instructions
• Structuring headings and page hierarchy
• Writing error messages or help text
• Creating alt text for images
• Writing link text
• Structuring data tables
• Any time words appear on screen
