Tile

The tile React Carbon component has been tested against the latest W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level A and AA success criteria and violations have been identified as high priority issues. This document will be updated when these accessibility issues are resolved.

Accessibility considerations

  1. Labels should be clear and concise.
  2. Users should be warned if selecting a tile will cause a change in context.
  3. Carbon components should be used to create the content that displays within each tile.
