Avatar presence stack

A compact people-presence primitive built from initial avatars and status markers. Each avatar has a full accessible name; the overflow control opens a focused roster and closes cleanly on Escape.

Implementation field notes

Use avatar presence stack confidently.

The preview and source are only the starting point. Use these notes to decide where the component fits, preserve its accessibility contract, and verify the adapted result.

Good fit for

  • Collaborative editors
  • Project teams
  • Live room presence

This avatars pattern works best when its purpose is clear in the surrounding page hierarchy.

Accessibility contract

  • Each avatar control includes the person name and current presence.
  • Color status dots are backed by accessible text.
  • Escape closes the overflow roster and restores focus to its trigger.

Integration plan

  1. Copy the standalone HTML and scoped CSS into an isolated page.
  2. Adapt online status, away status, avatar ring, surface color through the Inspector.
  3. Connect the defensive JavaScript, then test every control with a keyboard.
  4. Review the result at 375, 768, 1024, and 1440 pixels before shipping.
