@statua/dialog

Dialog component.

Features:

• Best accessibility practices baked in
• Tab and focus lock on tabbable elements inside dialog
• Handles usual UX considerations such as closing on Escape key and clicking on dialog backdrop
• Flexible styling
• Sets aria-hidden on all sibling and ancestor elements except for the currently active dialog which traps the virtual cursor inside the dialog
