Announcement
The announcement component surfaces short, high-visibility messages at checkout without blocking the flow. Use announcement for promotions, shipping updates, and lightweight prompts that keep buyers moving.
Announcements support links, optional dismissal, and can trigger a modal for longer-form content. For persistent status messages or error alerts, use banner instead.
The announcement bar enforces a strict maximum height. Content beyond that height is truncated and can't scroll. Layout and content are controlled entirely through child elements.

CallbackEventListener
A typed event listener for custom element events. The listener receives a `CallbackEvent` with the correct `currentTarget` type for the associated custom element tag.
(EventListener & {
(event: CallbackEvent<TTagName, Event> & TData): void;
}) | nullCallbackEvent
An event type that narrows the `currentTarget` to the specific HTML element associated with the custom element tag. This provides type-safe event handling in callback listeners.
TEvent & {
currentTarget: HTMLElementTagNameMap[TTagName];
}ToggleArgumentsEvent
The event data provided to toggle-related callbacks. Contains the previous and next visibility states of the element.

Anchor to Best practicesBest practices
- Keep copy short: Fit the message in a single short line whenever possible so buyers see it at a glance without needing to expand.
- Plan for truncation: The component has a strict maximum height. Content that exceeds the expanded state's height is clipped with no scrolling. Validate your copy length before shipping.
- Link to a modal for longer content: If you need to display surveys, detailed offers, or other long-form content, use the announcement bar as a teaser that opens a modal rather than overfilling the bar.
