Banner
Free · MITHeadless, accessible, and styled entirely through the attribute surface below — bring your own CSS system, or start from the reference theme.
Install
Without a flag you get no styling at all — plain HTML carrying the attribute surface below. --theme copies the same theme in two dialects;--bridge lumos re-points either one onto Lumos for Astro's tokens (it needs a theme to re-point, and Lumos itself, already in your project).
Unstyled — behavior only, you write the CSS
npx astrocraft-ui add display/bannerPlain-CSS theme — no build step
npx astrocraft-ui add display/banner --theme cssTailwind theme — needs Tailwind v4
npx astrocraft-ui add display/banner --theme tailwindPlain-CSS theme, re-pointed onto Lumos tokens

Banner
Dismiss it and watch where the keyboard goes: focus moves to the page's main landmark rather than falling to <body>, which is what sends a screen reader back to the top of the document. Persistence is yours — listen forbanner:dismiss.
Attribute surface
With no class-merging machinery, these attributes are the whole extension point. State is a data-attribute or a native attribute; visibility is the hiddenattribute. Generated from source by pnpm slots.
| Component | Slots | Variants | Runtime state | Native state |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `Banner.astro` | `banner` | — | — | — |
| `BannerClose.astro` | `banner-close` | `data-variant`: `primary` · `secondary` · `outline` · `ghost` `data-size`: `sm` · `md` · `lg` | — | — |
Source
What the command copies — 3 files, alias-free so the copy lands standing alone. This is the whole component; there is nothing else.
---
// src/components/ui/display/banner/Banner.astro — headless primitive (see ../../README.md).
// A dismissible site-wide notice — the cookie bar, the "you are viewing a staging build" strip.
// Compose a BannerClose inside it.
//
// `role="region"` with a name, rather than `role="alert"`: a banner is usually present from page
// load, and an alert that fires on every navigation is noise a screen-reader user cannot turn off.
// As a named landmark it is instead reachable on purpose, by anyone, at any point.
//
// PERSISTENCE IS YOURS. Whether a dismissal is remembered, and where — a cookie, localStorage, the
// server — is a product decision with privacy consequences, so the library does not guess: it hides
// the banner and dispatches a bubbling `banner:dismiss` you can listen for.
//
// WHAT IS OURS is where the keyboard goes afterwards. Hiding the element that currently has focus
// drops focus to <body>, and most screen readers respond by jumping back to the top of the document
// — so the user is punished with the whole page again for having dismissed a notice. The script
// moves focus to the main landmark instead, which is where someone who just cleared a banner out of
// the way was trying to get.

// FormErrorSummary uses. Body is the fallback for a page with no <main>.

// more than one banner, and three buttons all announced as "Dismiss" tell a screen-reader user
// nothing about which is which.
