Accessibility
The KendoReact TreeView component is WCAG 2.2 AA and Section 508 compliant. The component also follows the WAI-ARIA best practices for implementing the keyboard navigation for its component role, and is tested against the popular screen readers.
Due to the rich feature set of the library and complexity of some components, the specific combination of configuration options may lead to inaccessible component rendering. Perform thorough testing on any modifications applied to the KendoReact components to ensure that they continue to comply with the desired level of accessibility standards.
WCAG 2.2 Compliance
WCAG 2.2 comes with a Draggable Movements criteria as part of the Operable principle. Its objective is to ensure that any feature that relies on dragging actions also offers an alternative method to perform the same action using a single-click user interaction.
Our mission is to provide a flexible API that allows all functionalities to be triggered programmatically or externally, ensuring compatibility with various accessibility requirements for any application.
In the following example, we demonstrate how to achieve accessibility compliance with WCAG 2.2 AA by enabling node reordering through the TreeView Context Menu functionality. The TreeView component also has enabled keyboard navigation and built-in WAI ARIA Support for enhanced accessibility.
Open the example in a new window to evaluate it with Axe Core or other accessibility tools.
The described level of compliance is achievable with the Ocean Blue A11y Accessibility Swatch.
