List name

Can be used in some circumstances in aria to give context to the list. If presented, aria-labelledby would be appropriate, if a presentational heading was used, aria-label would be appropriate.

TBC

TBC as to whether a visible heading for the list (e.g. You might also like) forms part of the list or whether it falls within the section heading block. Not all list will necessary need to display a visible heading as it might fall under the page header (H1).

Behaviour 

  • Lists themselves are often guided by the content that exists within them, so don’t specifically have a behaviour though there are some behavioural ‘extensions’ to be mindful of.

  • Lists are always structural, but can also be semantic. Semantic lists allow for ordered and unordered lists (and potentially definition lists).

  • Any individual list can be considered critical or optional. A critical list always displays its entire contents and is generally used with the list of the core content of the page (e.g. the main product list on a product listing page. An optional list can display a portion of the list, with the remained revealed through user interaction of list controls.

  • List controls include carousels, ‘batch loading' and pagination, which are defined separately within this section.

  • Filtering and sorting are also list controls that fall outside of the MVP.
