Accessibility

Timeline breaks

The Timeline.Break component allows for content in Timeline to be visually seperated. This should be used for decorative purposes only. Since this component is decorative, it is not conveyed to assistive technologies like screen readers.

The content within Timeline.Item should clearly communicate the status and state of that item, so that if there is a need to seperate content, the context of the seperation is communicated in Timeline.Item.
