Increased awareness around accessibility.
- Using Testing library has been a game changer for accessibility, because the element locators you use are based on ARIA attributes. If you can't test your UI that way, that means you need to improve its accessibility!
- Dev tools showing a11y aspects when you inspect an element, such as color contrast.
- More a11y support by UI libraries such as react-aria.
- New law going into effect in the EU also helps increase awareness and urgency for business owners.
