# HomeHero

> Homepage hero with kinetic title, background, and primary CTA.

- Status: stable
- Group: marketing
- Page: https://www.digitaltableteur.com/design-system/components/home-hero
- Contract: https://www.digitaltableteur.com/contracts/v1/HomeHero.contract.json

## When to use

HomeHero is the bespoke landing hero for the homepage: a kinetic headline randomized per visit, background treatment, and CTAs to Contact and About. Copy and variants live inside the component by design; it is not a configurable hero. For prop-driven heroes on other routes use Hero, or HeroSection for a bare shell.

## When not to use

The contract records no forbidden uses.

## Look-alikes

The contract names no look-alike with a deciding condition.

## Props

| Prop | Type | Default | Description | Required |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `className` | `string` | none | Custom className for styling. | No |
| `background` | `ReactNode` | none | Replaces the default animated gradient behind the content. Drags on the background pass through the content layer; only the buttons capture them. | No |

## Variants

No variant dimensions and no props with a fixed set of values.

## Invalid combinations

The contract records no invalid combinations.

## Keyboard

| Key | Behaviour |
| --- | --- |
| Tab | Moves focus to the control and on to the next focusable element. (standard) |
| Enter | Activates the focused control. (standard) |

Rows marked (standard) name a key the contract lists without a description; the behaviour shown is the usual one for that key.

## Rules

Every item under When not to use is a MUST NOT. MUST and SHOULD follow RFC 2119.

| Level | Rule | How it is checked |
| --- | --- | --- |
| MUST | ARIA: The root is HeroSection's section landmark, named by the translated homeHeroAriaLabel ("Homepage hero section") | Not yet verified: no evidence record. WCAG 4.1.2. |
| MUST | ARIA: The h1, the subtitle and both CTA links are static content with no live region: the title and subtitle are picked once per page load, so nothing is re-announced after hydration. | Not yet verified: no evidence record. WCAG 4.1.2. |
| MUST | Required stories produce no axe violations at the configured severity. | Automated by `npm run test:stories:matrix:ci`. WCAG 2.5.8. |
| MUST | The accessibility tree (role, name, state) matches the committed snapshot for every required story. | Automated by `npm run test:stories:matrix:ci`. WCAG 1.3.1, 4.1.2. |
| MUST | The component remains legible and operable under a real browser forced-colors: active pass. | Automated by `npm run test:stories:hc`. |
| MUST | Every documented keyboard interaction works as specified. | Not yet verified: no evidence record. WCAG 2.1.1, 2.1.2. |
| MUST | A human completed an end-to-end accessibility review of this component. | Manual review, last on 2026-11-04. |
| MUST NOT | Maintainers: Do not bypass design tokens or skip forced-colors verification at beta. | Release review; not machine-checked. |
