# Select - Accessibility

A select is a form input component that lets users choose one option from a predefined list.

## General

If a visible label isn't specified, an **aria-label** should be provided to the Select for accessibility. If the field is labeled by a separate element, an **aria-labelledby** prop should be provided using the id of the labeling element instead.

* Always provide a visible label (do not rely on placeholder alone).
* Do not rely on color alone for interaction feedback (e.g. error states).
* Interaction patterns should follow platform-native expectations (e.g. tap zones, keyboard navigation, etc) and must not block accessibility tools.
* Dropdown must be announced by screen readers.
