Domain A11y Explore Bar Chart a11y Example

Example:

/// Example of a bar chart with domain selection A11y behavior.
///
/// The OS screen reader (TalkBack / VoiceOver) setting must be turned on, or
/// the behavior does not do anything.
///
/// Note that the screenshot does not show any visual differences but when the
/// OS screen reader is enabled, the node that is being read out loud will be
/// surrounded by a rectangle.
///
/// When [DomainA11yExploreBehavior] is added to the chart, the chart will
/// listen for the gesture that triggers "explore mode".
/// "Explore mode" creates semantic nodes for each domain value in the chart
/// with a description (customizable, defaults to domain value) and a bounding
/// box that surrounds the domain.
///
/// These semantic node descriptions are read out loud by the OS screen reader
/// when the user taps within the bounding box, or when the user cycles through
/// the screen's elements (such as swiping left and right).
