WAI-ARIA Navigation Guidelines

  • Container Semantics: Encapsulated in <nav aria-label="Breadcrumb"> to provide explicit Landmark recognition.
  • Current Page Indication: The final node includes aria-current="page" to announce the active destination to screen readers.
  • List Structure: Uses standard ordered <ol> and <li> elements to communicate step quantity and ordinal rank.
