Testimonial

Preview

Rendered from the story the storybook (a11y) CI gate runs axe against — the preview can't show something that hasn't been verified.

Install

Two equivalent paths — the URL works in any shadcn-CLI setup; the alias works once you've registered @interlace in your components.json.

npx shadcn@latest add https://ds.interlace.tools/r/testimonial.json

npx shadcn@latest add @interlace/testimonial

Import

3 named exports — pull the parts you need.

import { MIN_VIEWPORT, Testimonial, TestimonialGrid } from '@/components/ui/patterns/testimonial';

Anatomy

Extracted from the primitive's JSDoc header. The source is the only documentation that can't drift.

Testimonial:
    <figure data-slot="testimonial" data-min-viewport="320">
      <blockquote>{quote}</blockquote>
      <figcaption>
        <Avatar /> <cite>{author}</cite> · <span>{role}</span>
      </figcaption>
    </figure>
  TestimonialGrid:
    <section data-slot="testimonial-grid"><Container>
      <Grid cols={3}>{items.map(<Testimonial/>)}</Grid>
    </Container></section>

API reference

Parsed from the type declarations in the source — the same file the install writes into your tree, so this table can't drift from the component you get.

Skeleton

Pass loading and the component renders a shape-matched <Skeleton /> in its own place — same box, so nothing reflows when the data lands. Below is the same story with loading={true}.

<MIN_VIEWPORT loading={isPending} />

Accessibility

Every story for this component is rendered headlessly and checked with axe-core (wcag2aa, wcag22aa, best-practice, ACT) on every PR. That gate has no continue-on-error, so what ships has zero known violations.

What follows is what static analysis can see. Axe cannot press a key and never sees an overlay open, so the operable-without-a-mouse claim lives in Behavior instead, where the keyboard path is replayed step by step.

Focus + keyboard behaviour

Native element semantics — no interaction layer to get wrong.

Focus ring (WCAG 2.2 SC 2.4.13)

Not focusable — no focus indicator required.

Reduced motion

No animation to gate.

ARIA in the source

None — semantics come from the element or the Base UI primitive rather than hand-written ARIA.

Examples

3 more states from the same story file.

R-rule compliance

Every primitive in @interlace/ui models to the portable 26-rule floor enforced by the componentApi ESLint preset. The cells below pin exactly where each rule applies in this file.
