Question 1

How to customize Simptip tooltip colors with Sass?

Accepted Answer

Simptip uses Sass variables for theming; you can override variables like color themes in your Sass file before importing Simptip to change colors. Check the documentation on the project site for specific variable names and examples.

Question 2

Simptip vs Tippy.js: which should I use?

Accepted Answer

Simptip is pure CSS and lightweight, best for simple, static tooltips without JavaScript. Tippy.js is JS-based with more features like interactive content and delays, but heavier. Choose based on your need for interactivity versus performance.

Question 3

Does Simptip work with React or Vue frameworks?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you need to apply CSS classes manually to elements, as Simptip is CSS-only. For dynamic content or state management, consider adding custom JavaScript or using a framework-specific tooltip library.

Question 4

How to make Simptip tooltips show on click instead of hover?

Accepted Answer

Simptip doesn't support click triggers natively; you'll need to add custom JavaScript to toggle CSS classes or use a different library. It's designed primarily for hover interactions as per the README.

Question 5

Is Simptip accessible for screen readers?

Accepted Answer

Not out of the box; the README doesn't include ARIA attributes. You should manually add aria-label or role attributes to elements for better accessibility, as CSS-only tooltips can be missed by assistive technologies.

Question 6

Can I use Simptip for multiline tooltips?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Simptip supports multiline tooltips by adding the .simptip-multiline class, allowing text to wrap within the tooltip, as specified in the usage section of the README.
