Best Practices

Accessibility

  • Keyboard navigation: Arrow keys to move; Enter/Space to activate; focus visible
  • User control: Don't auto-advance too fast; allow pause; avoid auto-advance if prefers-reduced-motion is set
  • Announcements: Screen reader users need to know current slide and total (e.g., "Slide 2 of 5")
  • Touch targets: ≥44×44px for prev/next buttons on mobile

Performance

  • Lazy load: Load off-screen slides on demand; avoid loading all images upfront
  • Reserve space: Reserve space for slides to avoid layout shift (CLS)

SEO

  • Content in DOM: All carousel content must be in the initial HTML at page load. Google does not simulate clicks; content loaded via AJAX on slide change is not discoverable. Same as tab-accordion.
  • Recommendation: Server-render all slides in HTML; use CSS/JS only to show/hide. See rendering-strategies.
