A11y question: why not using a list (<ul />) ?

• I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

Hi. Thanks for this great package, it works very fine for my usage.

I was just wondering if you had ever consider using a <ul /> for the element wrapper for a11y reason mainly: it allows screen readers to announce the number of items swipable ?

Advice made here also https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/ui-element-samples/issues/18 by @robdodson

Thanks for your response. The link I shared was just to show the explanation of @robdodson on the advantage of using <ul /> tag for list in general, not to compare the use case. If you take a look to W3C recommendations, it seems that even for “Carousel”, <ul><li /></ul> is the good choice. It will help screen readers (an users) to know how many views are available.

We could enable to change tags thought props or at least add roles:

• parent div: role=“list”
• children: role=“listitem”

What do you think ?

@oliviertassinari about this use case of showing multiple slides at once, is this a feature that you think is applicable here? If not, do you know any other library that has it implemented and works well with SSR? Thanks
