If you're not using one of the supported browsers you can try a polyfill! github.com/tak-dcxi/dia... this one looks quite good, I haven't used it myself but looking at the code it seems well made.

Have you... just tried it? Maybe it's not as bad as you're concerned about. Make one template file and copy/paste for each page. If you need to make a change, use find/replace or sed or equivalent.
Keep doing that until it hurts enough to put effort into doing more.

Itāll be this year. @lukewarlow.dev is working on WebKit and I think itās mostly done. Firefox will take a little longer but itās on my docket, Iāll likely pick it up in July!

Oh I misconstrued the original post to mean āwhat components (in a component library) are irrelevantā. I see the error of my ways now.

If itās not dialog, I need to know why so I can go change it so it is dialog.

Looking for examples of rich tooltips that _arent_ a link preview.

Iād like to agree, Iām sure people could do a lot with it, but Iād like to be able to confirm that by seeing some examples in the wild today. I think it would generate better buy in with browser implementers.

This is related to that (I omitted it because I didnāt want to prime folk). Looking for motivating examples, as well as examples that can prove that this is the right level of abstraction.

Yeah that's the feature I am referring to. Thanks for the links!

Iām not super up on anchored positioning but I reckon @nerdy.dev might be able to help!

This shouldn't be necessary because of the aria-details association, AIUI. Have you found that to be insufficient?

Anyway now Iām at Mozilla building and specifying these features so if you need to shout at anyone for their shortcomings then Iād be the right person!

Primers tooltip: primer.style/product/comp... uses popover
Primers dialog (in ViewComponent) uses native dialog: primer.style/product/comp... (react doesnāt yet because I left before I could finish it).
Both had extensive a11y reviews.

I spent a fair amount of time on this. Primer (GitHub) is like 75% the way there. Tooltips and many menus use popovers. Anchor positioning isnāt cross browser yet.
For the most part Iād say the accessibility/focus is solved by the browser. If you run into issues Iād love to hear about them though!

Iāve been thinking of writing something about this, so this feels like a good inspiration to start!

The closest I have on this topic is www.keithcirkel.co.uk/i-dont-have-.... However folks far smarter than I have written much more coherent criticisms. Perhaps try infrequently.org/2023/02/the-... by @infrequently.org or www.zachleat.com/web/react-cr... by @zachleat.com

GitHub used to be written without frameworks, but the push has been to use React for all frontend code. I don't agree with the choice, and dislike using React myself.
