Accessible icon links

In modern web design, it is not uncommon to have a link (or a button) that visually has no text, and is just an icon. Think about social icons, or items in a compact navbar. Relying solely on iconography can be tricky, but it can work, especially when icons are clear and well known.

Yet, even if no text is technically displayed, it is important to provide alternative content for people using screen-readers. It turns out making an accessible icon link is not that straightforward and I thought it would deserve its own little article.

Implementation

As an example, let’s consider a Twitter icon link using the iconic bird. We will use SVG for the icon itself since it’s a scalar format that does not require an additional HTTP request.

svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewbox="0 0 16 16">
path
d="M16 3.538a6.461 6.461 0 0 1-1.884.516 3.301 3.301 0 0 0 1.444-1.816 6.607 6.607 0 0 1-2.084.797 3.28 3.28 0 0 0-2.397-1.034 3.28 3.28 0 0 0-3.197 4.028 9.321 9.321 0 0 1-6.766-3.431 3.284 3.284 0 0 0 1.015 4.381A3.301 3.301 0 0 1 .643 6.57v.041A3.283 3.283 0 0 0 3.277 9.83a3.291 3.291 0 0 1-1.485.057 3.293 3.293 0 0 0 3.066 2.281 6.586 6.586 0 0 1-4.862 1.359 9.286 9.286 0 0 0 5.034 1.475c6.037 0 9.341-5.003 9.341-9.341 0-.144-.003-.284-.009-.425a6.59 6.59 0 0 0 1.637-1.697z"

Now, let’s start by wrapping it up with a link:


a href="https://twitter.com/HugoGiraudel">
svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewbox="0 0 16 16">…svg>
a>

Unfortunately, at this stage this link contains no accessible name, which is a big problem. Let’s add some descriptive text, that we make visually hidden yet accessible.


a href="https://twitter.com/HugoGiraudel">
svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewbox="0 0 16 16">…svg>
span class="sr-only">Twitterspan>
a>

Chris Heilmann asked me whether using the aria-label attribute or a element in the SVG would be simpler than having a visually hidden element. The latter solution provides better support with older assistive technologies and avoids aria-label internationalisation issues.

There is still a bit more we need to do. Since we provided a descriptive text, we can safely remove the SVG markup from the accessibility tree by adding the aria-hidden attribute.


a href="https://twitter.com/HugoGiraudel">
svg
aria-hidden="true"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
viewbox="0 0 16 16"
>
    …
svg>
span class="sr-only">Twitterspan>
a>

Last but not least, svg elements can be focused on Internet Explorer, which is becoming less and less of a problem overall—still, we should correct that with the focusable attribute.

a href="https://twitter.com/HugoGiraudel">
svg
aria-hidden="true"
focusable="false"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
viewbox="0 0 16 16"
>
    …
svg>
span class="sr-only">Twitterspan>
a>

As a last touch, I would recommend adding the text content in the title attribute on the link as well. This does not enhance accessibility per se, but it emits a small tooltip when hovering the link, which can be handy for non-obvious iconography.

a href="https://twitter.com/HugoGiraudel" title="Twitter">
svg
aria-hidden="true"
focusable="false"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
viewbox="0 0 16 16"
>
    …
svg>
span class="sr-only">Twitterspan>
a>

Our final link (with some additional styles to make it easier on the eye):
Twitter

As a React component

Now that we have sorted out how to make our icon links accessible, we can safely make a little React component for that (out of sight, out of mind), using a component.

const IconLink = ({ Icon, ...props }) => (
a {...props}>
Icon aria-hidden="true" focusable="false" />
VisuallyHidden>{props.title}/VisuallyHidden>
/a>
)

Then it can be used like this:

const Twitter = props => (
svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 16 16' {...props}>
path d='M16 3.538a6.461 6.461 0 0 1-1.884.516 3.301 3.301 0 0 0 1.444-1.816 6.607 6.607 0 0 1-2.084.797 3.28 3.28 0 0 0-2.397-1.034 3.28 3.28 0 0 0-3.197 4.028 9.321 9.321 0 0 1-6.766-3.431 3.284 3.284 0 0 0 1.015 4.381A3.301 3.301 0 0 1 .643 6.57v.041A3.283 3.283 0 0 0 3.277 9.83a3.291 3.291 0 0 1-1.485.057 3.293 3.293 0 0 0 3.066 2.281 6.586 6.586 0 0 1-4.862 1.359 9.286 9.286 0 0 0 5.034 1.475c6.037 0 9.341-5.003 9.341-9.341 0-.144-.003-.284-.009-.425a6.59 6.59 0 0 0 1.637-1.697z' />

)

const MyComponent = props => (
IconLink
    href='https://twitter.com/HugoGiraudel'
    title='Twitter'
    Icon={Twitter}

)
