Installation & markup

Include the local stylesheet and script once on the page, then place the component inside a data-xsh-ui root. The example above works without a build system.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/dist/xshna-ui.css">
<div data-xsh-ui>
  <!-- Add the HTML example above -->
</div>
<script defer src="/dist/xshna-ui.js"></script>

Component API

Public classes, attributes and hooks used by this example. Keep the xsh- prefix intact.

IdentifierContract
xsh-topnavUsed by the example markup and component styles or behavior.
aria-currentUsed by the example markup and component styles or behavior.

Accessibility & keyboard

Links are naturally keyboard and screen-reader accessible.

Implementation note. Keep active page state accurate after navigation.

Interaction contract

Behavioral components use the shared delegated runtime; visual-only primitives rely on semantic HTML and CSS. Runtime controls emit bubbling xsh:* CustomEvents; bind application handlers to those events when server persistence, API data or navigation is required.
