CLIs Serving UIs Countless times I’ve found myself shipping CLI tooling amongst teams or co-workers. The challenge of onboarding users to a new CLI is that there’s a whole new set of commands, subcommands, flags, and arguments for the user to work with. While my daily workflows are essentially built on CLIs, there’s no doubting that a UI can ease the on-ramp and usability of your tooling. When I was working on Tanzu Community Edition at VMware, I saw first hand how successful a UI could be.

Redesigning Digital Information - Information designed to fit software logic must now be restructured to serve emergent consumer logic.

Accessibility of web content requires semantic information about widgets, structures, and behaviors, in order to allow assistive technologies to convey appropriate information to persons with disabilities. This specification provides an ontology of roles, states, and properties that define accessible user interface elements and can be used to improve the accessibility and interoperability of web content and applications. These semantics are designed to allow an author to properly convey user interface behaviors and structural information to assistive technologies in document-level markup. This version adds features new since WAI-ARIA 1.1 [wai-aria-1.1] to improve interoperability with assistive technologies to form a more consistent accessibility model for [HTML] and [SVG2]. This specification complements both [HTML] and [SVG2].
