ARIA enhancements External ARIA provided by the aria property: ARIAUsagearia-labelDefines a string value that labels the control item itself. Internal ARIA that is managed by the component: ARIAUsagerole="group"Identifies a set of user interface objects.aria-pressed="BOOLEAN"Provides the current state of the control. Development considerations Labelling It's recommended to provide a descriptive label to the wrapper component using aria-label to provide more context for assistive technologies, e.g.: <p-segmented-control aria-label="Choose a t-shirt size">. If a more detailed label is needed for each control item, use the aria property on the control item itself, e.g.: <p-segmented-control-item value="xs" aria="{ 'aria-label': 'Size x-small'}">XS</p-segmented-control-item>. If an icon only is used, it is mandatory to also provide an accessible name (aria-label) through the aria property of the control item.
