Alert.

A message that deserves attention.

Static alerts remain ordinary content. Add role="status" for a dynamically inserted polite announcement, or role="alert" for urgent feedback. Title and Description provide structure; do not announce decorative examples automatically.

Styling tokens

Change Theme settings above to compare appearance, accent, neutral, radius, spacing density, motion and direction. Override component aliases on a Theme root so custom properties follow portaled content too. The wrapper merges className, style, refs and render composition with its owning primitive.

TokenPurpose
--dixy-color-background-surfaceThe component-specific starting point.
--dixy-font-label-mdControl label font and line height; body roles remain readable in text inputs.
--dixy-color-background-selectedSelected surfaces use semantic color across appearances.
--dixy-color-border-focusFocus indication remains visible independently of shadows.
--dixy-spacing-inset-smDensity-aware component padding.
--dixy-motion-transition-feedbackShort state feedback, reduced by the inherited motion setting.

Consider everyone

Accessibility

Provide visible labels and meaningful names. Preserve native semantics, selected/disabled state and visible focus. Target WCAG 2.2 AA; full contrast, assistive-technology and platform verification remains pending.

Target: WCAG 2.2 AA. Automated tests cover selected behavior; manual screen-reader, contrast, and zoom validation remain part of the release checklist.

THE THINKING BEHIND IT

Build it. Then understand it.
