Traits

Requirements

• Describe the element type, e.g., Checkbox, Link, or Button, via the available traits.

Full Explanation

The accessibility traits will announce to users (in particular screen reader users using VoiceOver and TalkBack) what type of element they have navigated to. For example, a user would not necessarily click on an element if said element announces itself as standard text. Yet, visual users can see that it is an actionable element that performs some form of function, such as a ‘Button’.
