Text area - Accessibility

A text area allows users to input extended text content that covers multiple lines.

General

If a visible label isn't specified, an aria-label must be provided to the text field for accessibility. If the field is labeled by a separate element, an aria-labelledby prop must 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.
