Pill V2
v.1.0.0 | SaturnAccessibility is a crucial consideration when designing and developing components, as it ensures that all users, regardless of their abilities or limitations, can interact effectively with your project. In this section, we will explore how our pill has been developed with accessibility in mind, ensuring that all users have a smooth and meaningful experience.
The following mencioned props and recommendations are optional, althougt at Kubit strongly recommend their use to meet accessibility standars.
Text
It needs a visible text label that clearly indicate its purpose.
Icons
Decorative and selected icon have to be hidden to screen reader users, avoiding repetitive information.
Screenreader and Keyboard interactions
To support screen reader users, this component should include WAI ARIA attributes (the alt and aria specific props) to have a correct semantic markup. Screen reader and keyboard users should be able to operate with all the interactive elements.
When several pills are shown, they have to be grouped as a list of elements. In addition, the group of pills should have a heading, landmark or another suitable markup in order to make easy to understand and find them to screen reader users).
Visual design
Color contrast
- For text labels in links needs a color contrast of at least 4'5:1 for regular text and 3:1 for large scale (18pt) or bold text (14pt).
- For the rest of elements and the focus indicator at least of 3:1 color contrast ratio is needed.
Target Size
The area for clicking and tapping buttons must be large enough. The recommended size of the target for pointer inputs is at least 24x24px and 44x44px for best readability.
