Breadcrumbs

You can use the breadcrumbs pattern to indicate where the current page sits in the site's navigation.

  • A <nav> element with an aria-label "Breadcrumb" identifies the structure as a breadcrumb trail
  • The set of links is structured using an ordered list
  • The separators between each item are added via CSS, so you don't have to include them manually.
