Usage

Dividers should be used to bring structure to a layout. Dividers help to separate groups of related elements or break up dense content to make it clearer for users to read and digest content.

Padding is not set for dividers to allow for flexibility in different layouts.

Inset

Inset dividers don’t extend to the edges of a container and are used to group similar items.

Colour

Dividers can be recoloured if the background it sits on prevents legibility unless it’s colour is changed.

Span

Span dividers span the width of their container. Use them to create clear separations between content and related content.

Accessibility

Divider is classed as decorative and therefore not focusable. Screen readers on tab navigation don't announce dividers but do announce them.
