WAI-ARIA APG: Grid Pattern
Defines grid as an interactive composite widget with one item in the page tab sequence, managed focus movement, data-grid versus layout-grid distinctions, arrow/Home/End/Page navigation, selection shortcuts, editing entry and exit conventions, grid roles, aria-sort, aria-selected, aria-readonly, and row or column count and index properties.
Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Data grid | Choose data grid when row-and-column data is interactive enough to require managed cell focus, arrow-key movement, selection, editing, or keyboard shortcuts. | Tab moves into the grid at one managed focus point and out to the next page control rather than visiting every cell by default. | APG grid guidance supports the core data-grid interaction model, keyboard navigation, editing boundary, selection, focus management, and ARIA roles and states. |
