What it does
Provides structured access to React Aria documentation through Claude's context window. React Aria is Adobe's library of unstyled React hooks and components for building accessible, interactive user interfaces. The server indexes and serves documentation on WAI-ARIA patterns, keyboard interaction behavior, component APIs, and accessibility best practices across React Aria, React Stately state management, and the Internationalized library. Because React Aria provides hooks and low-level components without bundled styling, the documentation is essential for teams building custom component libraries while maintaining accessibility standards and WCAG compliance.
Who it's for
Frontend engineers building custom accessible React components, design system maintainers implementing their own component libraries, and product teams requiring WCAG and WAI-ARIA compliance without adopting a monolithic design system framework.
Common use cases
- Reference React Aria hooks (
useButton,useSelect,useToggle) while implementing accessible interactive components - Query WAI-ARIA authoring practices and keyboard navigation behavior for complex patterns like comboboxes, tabs, and menus
- Look up accessibility and screen reader behavior requirements when building and styling custom components
- Verify internationalization, RTL support, and date formatting patterns from the Internationalized library
Setup pitfalls
- Filesystem writes: the server caches documentation locally; confirm write permissions and available disk space in the working directory
- Network dependency: documentation is fetched on first query; requires internet connectivity and may add latency to initial requests
- High-risk classification reflects the combination of filesystem write and network access; sandbox carefully in restricted environments or with untrusted code
