Requirements

  • MUST implement PFv6 visual designs
  • MUST provide end-user feature parity with `@patternfly/react-core` Timestamp
  • 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

  • React `date` prop (Date object or parseable string) - map to `date` attribute (ISO 8601 string); parse internally
  • React `dateFormat`: `full`, `long`, `medium`, `short` - uses `Intl.DateTimeFormat`
  • React `timeFormat`: `full`, `long`, `medium`, `short`, or omit for date-only
  • React `displaySuffix` - appended text (e.g. "UTC"); check if still in v6
  • React `locale` - passed to `Intl.DateTimeFormat`; default to `navigator.language`
  • React `tooltip` prop - shows full date/time in a tooltip; integrates with ``
  • Renders `` for semantic HTML; `datetime` = ISO 8601

Checklist

Rename

  • Delete `elements/pf-v5-timestamp/`
  • Update `elements/package.json` exports
  • Update `eslint.config.js` ignore globs if applicable
  • Update docs `_snippets/` and `framework-integration/` references

Implementation

  • API per `.claude/ADVICE.md`
  • CSS uses v6 tokens, logical properties, nesting
  • `@summary` and JSDoc on element class

Demos

  • Demos match patternfly.org naming/structure
  • 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
  • `eslint` and `stylelint` pass

Ship

  • Add changeset
  • PR targets `staging/pfv6` (NOT `main`)
