Avatar does not include any roles and attributes by default. Any attribute is passed to the root element so you may add a role like img along with aria-labelledby or aria-label to describe the component. In case avatars need to be tabbable, tabIndex can be added as well to implement custom key handlers.

Keyboard Support

Component does not include any interactive elements.
