Requirements
- MUST implement PFv6 visual designs
- MUST provide end-user feature parity with `@patternfly/react-core` Tooltip
- MAY adjust element API to leverage web platform strengths
- SHOULD maintain CSS custom property theming compatibility
- SHOULD expose useful CSS shadow parts
Element-specific considerations
- Uses Floating UI for positioning; already a v5 dep - verify version bump needed for v6
- React `position`: `top`, `bottom`, `left`, `right`, `top-start`, `top-end`, etc. (12 values)
- React `trigger`: space-separated string, e.g. `"mouseenter focus"` - map to `trigger` attribute
- React `entryDelay`, `exitDelay` (ms) - map to attributes
- React `distance` (offset from target) - CSS custom property preferred
- React `flipBehavior` - Floating UI flip middleware options
- React `maxWidth` - CSS custom property preferred
- React `reference` prop (programmatic trigger target) - consider `for` attribute pattern (like ``)
- Tooltip MUST NOT receive focus itself (content only); trigger element holds focus
Checklist
Rename
- Delete `elements/pf-v5-tooltip/`
- Update `elements/package.json` exports
- Update `eslint.config.js` ignore globs if applicable

Implementation

- CSS custom properties match computed styles from patternfly.org (Chrome MCP)
- Visual parity verified via Chrome MCP
Tests
- Public API covered (attributes, properties, events, slots)
- `a11ySnapshot` assertions
Reviews
- `/review-api` passes
- `/review-demos` passes
- `/review-a11y` passes
