Implementation

The sbb-breadcrumb is a component used to display a link to a page.

When it's used within the sbb-breadcrumb-group component,
it can display the list of the links the user visited to arrive at the current page.

Slots

It is possible to provide a text via an unnamed slot; the component can optionally display a sbb-icon
at the component start using the iconName property or via custom content using the icon slot.
Text and icon are not exclusive and can be used together.

<sbb-breadcrumb href="/contact">Contact us</sbb-breadcrumb>

<sbb-breadcrumb href="/book-your-trip" icon-name="travel-backpack-medium"></sbb-breadcrumb>

<sbb-breadcrumb href="/info">
  Info
  <sbb-icon slot="icon" name="circle-information-small"></sbb-icon>
</sbb-breadcrumb>

It's possible to set all the link related properties (download, href, rel and target).

<sbb-breadcrumb href="/info" target="_blank" rel="help">Info</sbb-breadcrumb>

Accessibility

The accessibility-current property should be used to make the breadcrumb read correctly by screen-readers when the component
is used in the sbb-breadcrumb-group.

By default, the sbb-breadcrumb-group component sets accessibility-current="page" on the last slotted sbb-breadcrumb.
