Screen readers

Utilities for improving accessibility with screen readers.

In this article

Class Properties
.sr-only @include sr-only();
.sr-only-focusable @include sr-only-focusable();

Usage

Use .sr-only to hide an element on all devices except for screen readers.

Use .sr-only with .sr-only-focusable to show the element again when it’s focused (e.g. by a keyboard-only user).

Variants

By default, no responsive or hover-state variants are generated for accessibility utilities.

Responsive

To include responsive variants like .md:sr-only, add "accessibility" to the $responsive-variants variable in your theme’s _variables.scss file when recompiling your CSS:

$responsive-variants: (
  // ...
  "accessibility",
);

Hover-state

To include hover-state variants like .hover:sr-only, add "accessibility" to the $hover-variants variable:

$hover-variants: (
  // ...
  "accessibility",
);
