Prop Details

`ariaLabel`

Tooltips are invisible to assistive technologies such as screen readers. To improve accessibility, ariaLabel is required to describe the content of the tooltip to assistive technologies.

The label will be used on the target element, so any existing aria-label attached to target will be overridden.

`popperModifiers`

Please refer to the documentation for the underlying positioning library "Popper.js". You can achieve various behaviours such as allowing the tooltip to overflow the viewport etc.
