Semantic structure
Use the documented Xshna classes with semantic HTML rather than replacing native elements unnecessarily.
Compose existing xsh- classes on the appropriate HTML element. Keep content order meaningful when CSS is disabled.
Components / Component reference
Progress and skeletons
Native progress bars, meters, spinners, and skeleton placeholders.
LIVE COMPONENT REFERENCE
Progress, skeletons and spinners
Use indeterminate loading for unknown durations. When you know a percentage, expose a real progress value.

<div class="xsh-ref-flex"><progress class="xsh-progress" max="100" value="72">72%</progress><span class="xsh-spinner" aria-label="Loading" role="status"></span><div class="xsh-skeleton" style="width:125px;height:15px" aria-hidden="true"></div><div class="xsh-skeleton xsh-skeleton-circle" style="width:38px;height:38px" aria-hidden="true"></div></div>Overview
Prefer native progress and meter elements with descriptive text. Use xsh-skeleton for placeholder geometry and xsh-spinner for busy states.

Respect reduced motion and provide real loading text for assistive technologies.
Customize this component through --xsh-* CSS tokens, data-xsh-* configuration attributes and documented xsh-* utilities. Use the optional JavaScript distribution only when an interactive behavior is needed.

Implementation details
Interactive behavior
Verify focus order, disabled behavior and descriptive labels for interactive patterns.
Load xshna.min.js only if the documented interaction needs it. Your application remains responsible for data, persistence and business rules.
Responsive and localization
Test narrow containers, long translations and user-defined text sizes.
Test 320px-wide viewports, container-constrained instances, keyboard zoom, longer translations and right-to-left text where relevant.
Theme and customization
Use --xsh-* CSS variables for theme values and data-xsh-design / data-xsh-density on the xsh-app root.
Prefer design tokens over hard-coded overrides so components remain coherent across personalities.
What to verify before shipping
- Confirm every documented class used by the feature exists in the release CSS.
- Navigate controls using Tab, Shift+Tab, Enter, Space and Escape where appropriate.
- Test with reduced motion, high contrast, 200% text zoom and a narrow mobile viewport.
- Verify disabled, loading, empty, error and long-content states where relevant.
- Check actual application behavior independently of the preview: these examples use illustrative data.
