🎨 Palette: Add auto-scroll and accessibility to chat timeline - #187
Conversation
💡 What: Added ARIA attributes to the chat timeline and implemented an auto-scrolling feature on new messages. 🎯 Why: Screen readers could not easily interpret updates in the dynamically changing log. Additionally, users were forced to manually scroll when new chat messages arrived, leading to a frustrating UX. ♿ Accessibility: Added `role="log"`, `aria-live="polite"`, and `aria-busy="isSending"` to ensure screen readers announce new content effectively.

💡 What: Added ARIA attributes (
role="log",aria-live="polite", andaria-busy="isSending") to the chat timeline container inChatTimeline.vueand implemented an auto-scrolling feature using a Vue ref and watcher.🎯 Why: Screen readers previously could not easily interpret updates in the dynamically changing chat log, and users were forced to manually scroll when new chat messages arrived, leading to a frustrating user experience.
📸 Before/After: Visual regression screenshot provided in playwright verification shows functional UI (auto scroll happens dynamically).
♿ Accessibility:
role="log"andaria-live="polite"ensure screen readers passively announce new content to users without interrupting them aggressively, significantly improving access for visually impaired users.PR created automatically by Jules for task 16845288752000942558 started by @MEKXH
