List of requirements?

jasonday opened this issue · 2 comments

Our team working on Duet Design System couldn’t find an existing date picker that would’ve ticked all the requirements we had for accessibility (supporting WCAG 2.1 as well as we can)

Do you have a list of what those requirements are?

We needed something that was:

  • lightweight in terms of file size
  • keyboard accessible
  • screen reader accessible
  • not tied to a specific framework
  • supported internationalisation
  • themeable enough to make it look like a native part of the design system

I couldn't really find any existing pickers that hit all those points. So despite the initial apprehension, we decided to build our own

Does that answer your question?
