What problem does it solve?
Tooltips are often inaccessible when they require hover and are not keyboard-navigable. This skill provides guidelines to ensure tooltips convey supplementary information to all users, support keyboard and AT interaction, and avoid hiding essential content behind hover-only interactions.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Ensure keyboard and screen reader accessibility for tooltip content.
- Define correct ARIA patterns, including role="tooltip", aria-describedby on triggers, and unique IDs.
- Provide guidance on when to use persistent text or a popover instead of a tooltip for essential information.
Quick Start
Apply the ARIA tooltip pattern to all hover- or focus-triggered tooltips within the project.
