Requirements

  • MUST implement PFv6 visual designs
  • MUST provide end-user feature parity with `@patternfly/react-core` NotificationDrawer
  • MAY adjust element API to leverage web platform strengths
  • SHOULD maintain CSS custom property theming compatibility
  • SHOULD expose useful CSS shadow parts

Element-specific considerations

  • React `isGrouped` - notifications grouped by category; map to `grouped` attribute
  • React sub-components: `NotificationDrawerHeader`, `NotificationDrawerBody`, `NotificationDrawerGroup`, `NotificationDrawerList`, `NotificationDrawerListItem`, `NotificationDrawerListItemHeader`, `NotificationDrawerListItemBody` - use named slots
  • `NotificationDrawerGroup`: `count`, `isExpanded`, `isRead`, `onExpand`, `title` - accordion-like group headers
  • `NotificationDrawerListItem`: `variant` (`success`, `warning`, `danger`, `info`, `default`), `isRead`, `isHoverable`, `onClick`
  • Header has "Mark all read" action and close button
  • Often rendered inside a `` (uses it as the panel)
  • Notifications should use `aria-live` at the container level for dynamic updates

Checklist

Implementation

  • API per `.claude/ADVICE.md`
  • CSS uses v6 tokens, logical properties, nesting
  • `@summary` and JSDoc on element class

Demos

  • Demos match patternfly.org naming/structure
  • CSS custom properties match computed styles from patternfly.org (Chrome MCP)
  • Visual parity verified via Chrome MCP

Tests

  • Public API covered (attributes, properties, events, slots)
  • `a11ySnapshot` assertions

Reviews

  • `/review-api` passes
  • `/review-demos` passes
  • `/review-a11y` passes
  • `eslint` and `stylelint` pass

Ship

  • Add changeset
  • PR targets `staging/pfv6` (NOT `main`)
