# Accessibility Code Patterns
Practical, copy-paste-ready patterns for common accessibility requirements. Each pattern is self-contained and linked from the main [SKILL.md](../SKILL.md).
---
## Modal focus trap
Trap keyboard focus inside a modal dialog so Tab/Shift+Tab cycle through its focusable elements and Escape closes it.
```javascript
function openModal(modal) {
const focusableElements = modal.querySelectorAll(
'button, [href], input, select, textarea, [tabindex]:not([tabindex="-1"])'
);
const firstElement = focusableElements[0];
const lastElement = focusableElements[focusableElements.length - 1];
modal.addEventListener('keydown', (e) => {
if (e.key === 'Tab') {
if (e.shiftKey && document.activeElement === firstElement) {
e.preventDefault();
lastElement.focus();
} else if (!e.shiftKey && document.activeElement === lastElement) {
e.preventDefault();
firstElement.focus();
}
}
if (e.key === 'Escape') {
closeModal();
}
});
firstElement.focus();
}
```
The native `<dialog>` element handles focus trapping automatically—prefer it when browser support allows.
---
## Skip link
Allows keyboard users to bypass repetitive navigation and jump straight to main content.
```html
<body>
<a href="#main-content" class="skip-link">Skip to main content</a>
<header><!-- navigation --></header>
<main id="main-content" tabindex="-1">
<!-- main content -->
</main>
</body>
```
```css
.skip-link {
position: absolute;
top: -40px;
left: 0;
background: #000;
color: #fff;
padding: 8px 16px;
z-index: 100;
}
.skip-link:focus {
top: 0;
}
```
---
## Error handling
Announce errors to screen readers and focus the first invalid field on submit.
```html
<form novalidate>
<div class="field" aria-live="polite">
<label for="email">Email</label>
<input type="email" id="email"
aria-invalid="true"
aria-describedby="email-error">
<p id="email-error" class="error" role="alert">
Please enter a valid email address (e.g., name@example.com)
</p>
</div>
</form>
```
```javascript
form.addEventListener('submit', (e) => {
const firstError = form.querySelector('[aria-invalid="true"]');
if (firstError) {
e.preventDefault();
firstError.focus();
const errorSummary = document.getElementById('error-summary');
errorSummary.textContent =
`${errors.length} errors found. Please fix them and try again.`;
errorSummary.focus();
}
});
```
---
## Form labels
Every input needs an associated label—either explicit (`for`/`id`) or implicit (wrapping `<label>`).
```html
<!-- ❌ No label association -->
<input type="email" placeholder="Email">
<!-- ✅ Explicit label -->
<label for="email">Email address</label>
<input type="email" id="email" name="email"
autocomplete="email" required>
<!-- ✅ Implicit label -->
<label>
Email address
<input type="email" name="email" autocomplete="email" required>
</label>
<!-- ✅ With instructions -->
<label for="password">Password</label>
<input type="password" id="password"
aria-describedby="password-requirements">
<p id="password-requirements">
Must be at least 8 characters with one number.
</p>
```
---
## Dragging movements
Any action triggered by dragging must offer a single-pointer alternative (WCAG 2.5.7).
```html
<!-- ❌ Drag-only reorder -->
<ul class="sortable-list" draggable="true">
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
</ul>
<!-- ✅ Drag + button alternatives -->
<ul class="sortable-list">
<li>
<span>Item 1</span>
<button aria-label="Move Item 1 up"></button>
<button aria-label="Move Item 1 down"></button>
</li>
<li>
<span>Item 2</span>
<button aria-label="Move Item 2 up"></button>
<button aria-label="Move Item 2 down"></button>
</li>
</ul>
```
Also applies to sliders, map panning, colour pickers, and similar drag-based widgets—always provide an equivalent click/tap or keyboard path.
---
## ARIA tabs
Tabs require `role="tablist"`, `role="tab"`, and `role="tabpanel"` with proper `aria-selected`, `aria-controls`, and keyboard support.
```html
<div role="tablist" aria-label="Product information">
<button role="tab" id="tab-1" aria-selected="true"
aria-controls="panel-1">Description</button>
<button role="tab" id="tab-2" aria-selected="false"
aria-controls="panel-2" tabindex="-1">Reviews</button>
</div>
<div role="tabpanel" id="panel-1" aria-labelledby="tab-1">
<!-- Panel content -->
</div>
<div role="tabpanel" id="panel-2" aria-labelledby="tab-2" hidden>
<!-- Panel content -->
</div>
```
Arrow keys should move focus between tabs; the active tab receives `tabindex="0"` while inactive tabs use `tabindex="-1"`.
---
## Live regions and notifications
Use `aria-live` to announce dynamic content changes to screen readers without moving focus.
```html
<!-- Status updates (polite — waits for pause in speech) -->
<div aria-live="polite" aria-atomic="true" class="status">
<!-- Content updates announced to screen readers -->
</div>
<!-- Urgent alerts (assertive — interrupts) -->
<div role="alert" aria-live="assertive">
<!-- Interrupts current announcement -->
</div>
```
```javascript
function showNotification(message, type = 'polite') {
const container = document.getElementById(`${type}-announcer`);
container.textContent = '';
requestAnimationFrame(() => {
container.textContent = message;
});
}
```
Clear the container before writing to ensure the same message triggers a new announcement.
---
## Screen reader commands
