Advarsel: Enkelte deler av innholdet er automatisk oversatt og er kanskje ikke helt nøyaktig.

Oversikt

Accessibility in UI/UX design ensures that digital products are usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. It’s not just a compliance requirement—it’s a foundation of inclusive, human-centered design that improves usability for all users.

Key Principles

  • Perceivable: Content is available to all senses (e.g., text alternatives for images, captions for videos)
  • Operable: Interfaces can be navigated via keyboard, screen reader, or adaptive devices
  • Understandable: Content is readable and interfaces behave predictably
  • Robust: Interfaces work with a wide range of assistive technologies and devices

Best Practices

  • Use semantic HTML and ARIA labels
  • Maintain high color contrast and readable fonts
  • Support keyboard navigation and skip links
  • Provide meaningful alt text for images
  • Use descriptive form labels and input validation
  • Avoid relying solely on color to convey information
  • Design error messages that are clear and actionable

Fordeler

  • Wider user reach and customer satisfaction
  • Improved SEO and performance
  • Legal and ethical compliance (e.g., WCAG, ADA)
  • Reduced technical debt through structured, inclusive design
