States & interaction
Appearance, behavior and keyboard checks.
- Check closed, open, highlighted, selected and disabled states where supported.
- Dialogs and menus must open from the keyboard. Escape closes non-persistent overlays and returns focus to the trigger. Tooltips and hover cards must also appear on focus.
- Test the example with Tab and Shift+Tab. Focus must stay visible in both themes.
API Reference
BrutalLab-specific properties. Native attributes are supported as well.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| open | boolean | uncontrolled | Controls menu visibility. |
| onOpenChange | function | — | Reports open-state changes. |
Accessibility
Rules that should remain intact when adapting the component to a product.
Preserve menu item keyboard navigation and disabled state. Context menu actions also need a discoverable alternative in the product.
Retain keyboard focus styles and test the composition with keyboard navigation.
Use className for visual customization; preserve the primitive ARIA attributes.
