When to use it

Where Notifications Feed earns its place

Reach for Notifications Feed

  • A bell in the top bar that has to hold a day of activity
  • Mentions and replies the reader is expected to answer
  • Invitations and requests that can be accepted or declined on the spot
  • A digest row folding many small events into one line

Reach for something else

  • Something the reader must see before continuing. That is a modal or an inline banner, because a feed is only opened when someone chooses to open it
  • A record of everything happening in a workspace, including other people's work; that is an activity feed or an audit log, since a notifications feed carries only what is addressed to the reader
  • Confirmations of the reader's own actions: a toast says it and goes, and putting 'saved' in the inbox fills it with rows nobody will read

Accessibility

06to keep

What the block ships with. Hold on to these as you make it yours.

  • Named controlsEvery icon-only button keeps a text label, so a screen reader can say what it does.
  • Keyboard firstEvery control is reachable with Tab, and its focus ring stays visible.
  • More than colourA state never rides on colour alone; a mark or a word goes with it.
  • Contrast holdsRetheme freely, but keep text at or above the contrast it ships with.
  • Calm motionFor visitors who ask for reduced motion, things simply appear.
  • Room to hitTargets stay at least 24px, with space between neighbours.
