@react-md/wia-aria

This package's main goal is to create a reusable API for keyboard navigation and focus. In addition, it will create the base functionality following the Design Patterns and Widgets patterns for accessible web applications. It should hopefully not always require react-md for these widgets as they will all be unstyled and only manage the focus abilities as a low-level API.

This will be accomplished by following the guidelines outlined in the Developing a Keyboard Interface from https://w3.org.

Installation

$ npm install --save @react-md/wia-aria

Unlike the majority of the packages in react-md, this package does not export any styles and is just used for basic accessibility utils to be used in different components.

KeyboardTracker

This is the main component export for this package. This should be included somewhere near the root of your React render tree to ensure that keyboard focus can be tracked in your app and there should probably only be one KeyboardTracker defined per app. This component will automatically update the keyboard tracker context as needed and is used by most of the hooks provided.

Example usage:

import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";
import { KeyboardTracker } from "@react-md/wia-aria";

import App from "./App";

render(
  <KeyboardTracker>
    <App />
  </KeyboardTracker>,
  document.getElementById("root")
);
