Challenge: Tabs

Tabs! So many websites have them and so many create an accessibility nightmare, but friends, that will change with this challenge and its subsequent solution.

The briefpermalink

Take the design assets and build and these tabs with whatever front-end technology you want.

Make sure that your challenge solution does the following as a minimum:

• Uses semantic elements
• Is usable with mouse, touch and keyboard

Bonus points awarded if:

• Your solution is usable without JavaScript enabled
• Your solution is lightweight and performant
• Your solution is fully accessible and uses appropriate aria attributes
• You create appropriate transitions and/or animations between states

Assetspermalink

I’ve used Figma to design this challenge and you can run it with a completely free account!

Here’s some assets to get you going:

• Figma prototype
• Figma project
• PDF Version
• Lato font on Google Fonts

Here are some CSS Custom Properties for your colours:

:root {
  --color-light: #f3f3f3;
  --color-mid: #dedede;
  --color-dark: #313e4f;
  --color-slate: #444444;
  --color-inactive: #4f637d;
  --color-primary: #2a7bd6;
}
