Accessible or semantic code is code that utilizes elements for their intended purpose, such as using a heading <h> tag for a heading instead of a regular paragraph text <p> tag with styling applied to it. Using semantic HTML markup and writing code to be accessible not only makes development easier, but it provides a number of important benefits to your users, especially those that use assistive technology.

Writing accessible or semantic code provides a number of benefits to developers and users alike, such as:

• Making code easier to understand and develop with
• Ensuring that code is more responsive and adaptable to a wide variety of devices and technologies
• Improving SEO as well as accessibility

Assistive technology users in particular - such as screen reader users - benefit greatly from accessible code, which allows them to more easily understand and navigate the content on a web page or application.
