Accessibility #

It exposes group, grid and status semantics, with aria-label, aria-hidden, aria-describedby, aria-sort and aria-expanded kept in step with state. Changes that matter are announced through a live region.

Motion #

It declares no animation in its component source. Any transition comes from its stylesheet, which uses the duration tokens that collapse to instant under prefers-reduced-motion.
