ProgressBar Accessibility
Out of the box, the Kendo React ProgressBar provides extensive accessibility support and enables users with disabilities to acquire complete control over its features.
The ProgressBar is compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA standards and Section 508 requirements, follows the Web Accessibility Initiative - Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI-ARIA) best practices for implementing the keyboard navigation for its component role, provides options for managing its focus and is tested against the most popular screen readers.
WAI-ARIA
This section lists the selectors, attributes, and behavior patterns supported by the component and its composite elements, if any.
| Selector | Attribute | Usage |

.k-progressbar | role=progressbar | Sets the proper role for ProgressBar. |
aria-label or aria-labelledby | The Progressbar needs an accessible name to be assigned to it. | |
