Blockquote

Implementation

• To provide context, include an aria-label attribute in the markup
• Ensure the blockquote is not interactive and cannot receive focus (unless there are interactive elements)
• Ensure that surrounding content can convey the purpose of a blockquote via assistive technologies
• Using a blockquote for anything other than its intended purpose will be confusing for assistive technologies
