# Oaf Bootstrap 4

Accessibility fixes for Bootstrap 4.

## Installation

```sh
# yarn
yarn add --dev oaf-bootstrap-4

# npm
npm install --save-dev oaf-bootstrap-4
```

## Usage

You'll need to recompile Bootstrap's Sass yourself.

Assuming `src/styles/index.scss`:

```scss
// Your Bootstrap variable overrides.
...

// Accessibility fixes that need to come _before_ the Bootstrap import.
@import "../../node_modules/oaf-bootstrap-4/scss/top.scss";

// Bootstrap itself.
@import "../../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss";

// Accessibility fixes that need to come _after_ the Bootstrap import.
@import "../../node_modules/oaf-bootstrap-4/scss/bottom.scss";

// Other styles.
...
```

## Fixes

### Restore link underlines

We include a fix for [Bootstrap issue 15304](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/15304). That issue is four and a half years old, so don't hold your breath.

From Bootstrap issue 15304:

> For aesthetic reasons, by default Bootstrap links have no underlines, relying instead just on a color difference from surrounding text. This in itself violates WCAG 2.0 "1.4.1 Use of color" http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#visual-audio-contrast-without-color

### Restore focus outline for tabindex="-1" elements

We include a fix for [Bootstrap issue 28425](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/28425).
