Trap keyboard navigation within a component. A11yTrap makes it easy to add accessibility support for modals, dropdowns and other web components.

DEMO

With NPM:

npm install a11ytrap --save

With Bower:

bower install a11ytrap --save

Or include A11yTrap directly:

<script src="/path/to/a11ytrap.js"></script>

Import A11yTrap and configure a component (all options with default values are shown).

import A11yTrap from 'a11ytrap';

const MyComponent = new A11yTrap('.MyComponent', {
  enableArrowKeys: false,
  focusOnElement: null,
  focusOnFirstElement: false,
  focusOnLastElement: false,
});

MyComponent.init();

A11yTrap will now handle focus management for your component.
