Semantic HTML

Semantic HTML means using HTML elements for their intended purpose: '<button>' for buttons (not '<div onclick>'), '<nav>' for navigation, '<h1>'-'<h6>' for headings, '<table>' for tabular data. Screen readers understand the semantics of native elements. Div soup (everything built with divs) is the most common architectural accessibility error.
