Seven Minute Tabs

Tabs web component. Based heavily on the Tabs with Automatic Activation example from WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices

• Demo

Installation

npm install @zachleat/seven-minute-tabs

Features

• Code converted to be a web component.
• All styles have been removed and this component operates correctly without CSS. For longevity of the code all styling is left to independent project-specific themes.
• Progressively enhances from <a> with anchor links pointing to content panels.
• Adds hidden attribute to panels using JavaScript so that content still shows when JavaScript is not available.
• Adds tabindex using JavaScript so that content remains accessibile without JavaScript.
• Arrow key support. Adjusts for vertical aria-orientation values.
• Home/end key support.
• (Option to delete tabs was removed from the original example)

Changelog

• v3.0.1 Add sync attribute to activate all other matching tabs (in other tab groups) with the same data-tab-persist="group:value".
• v3.0.0 New tab selection persistence (via persist attribute) logic with data-tab-persist="group:value". Defaults to localStorage. Use persist="session" for sessionStorage.
• v2.0.2 Add prune attribute option to remove buttons that don’t have a matching panel.
• v2.0.1 Add persist attribute option to persist selected tab to sessionStorage.
• v2.0.0 Previous versions of this component required the aria-selected, aria-labelledby, aria-controls, and button/tab id attributes to exist in server rendered markup. If they don’t exist, they are now added automatically.
