Best Practices
1. Labels
The Step Progress Bar should use descriptive step labels and should use a is-active
step to indicate the user's progress.
2. Short and Concise
The Step Progress Bar labels should be short and concise.
3. Ordering
The steps should be displayed in logical order from left to right to illustrate the movement through the steps.

Accessibility
Color contrast ratio for our Step Progress Bar meets AA standards, based on Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) guidelines.
Benefits: People with low vision often have difficulty reading text that does not contrast with its background. This can be exacerbated if the person has a color vision deficiency that lowers the contrast even further. Providing a minimum luminescence contrast ratio between the text and its background can make the text more readable even if the person does not see the full range of colors. It also works for the rare individuals who see no color.
