FAQ

What does the preview show?

The title Getting Started with React and the subtitle A comprehensive guide for beginners in SheetHeader, a muted line with By John Smith and 5 min read, two paragraphs, and a full-width Read Full Article button.

Is the dot in the byline read aloud?

No. The • between the author and the read time is aria-hidden, so a screen reader hears By John Smith, then 5 min read.

What does the sheet announce when it opens?

SheetTitle names the dialog for assistive tech, so every sheet renders one; hide it with sr-only when the design has no visible heading. Here the article's title is the sheet's title, and its subtitle is the description.

How does Read More open the preview?

The outline button labeled Read More is the trigger, and its text is the accessible name. asChild on SheetTrigger receives props: spread them onto the button.

What if the article preview is long?

Give the body flex-1 overflow-y-auto so it scrolls inside the panel while the header stays put. A preview should stay short, though: two paragraphs and a link out.
