React accessibility
React accessibility relies on semantic JSX, library choice (react-aria from Adobe, Radix UI, Headless UI), focus management, and route-change announcements — React itself provides no a11y primitives, so library and pattern discipline determines WCAG 2.2 AA outcomes.
What does accessibility mean on React?
React produces whatever HTML you tell it to. Accessibility is a function of component choices and library usage.
Known accessibility challenges in React
- Custom components rebuilding native primitives badly
- Hydration mismatches obscuring AT view
- Route announcements
Step-by-step: accessibility setup for React
- Use accessible primitives libraries. react-aria, Radix UI, Headless UI ship WCAG-tested primitives.
- Wire axe-core. @axe-core/react in dev; jest-axe in tests.
Integration with this platform
Integration approach: JSX components + libraries (react-aria, Radix, Headless UI).
