💡 Best Practices

Do

  • Use semantic <blockquote> for quoted content
  • Pair with U+276E (❮) for balanced quote framing
  • Add visible text or aria-label when ❯ indicates an action
  • Apply content: "\276F" via ::after on closers and links
  • Declare UTF-8 with <meta charset="utf-8">
  • Mark decorative quote marks with aria-hidden="true" when redundant with text

Don’t

  • Replace accessible quote semantics with glyphs alone
  • Confuse U+276F (❯) with U+2771 (❱) or »
  • Expect a named HTML entity for U+276F
  • Use CSS \276F in HTML text nodes
  • Use ❯ as the only indicator of a primary navigation action without labels
