+# ember/template-no-aria-hidden-body
+
+🔧 This rule is automatically fixable by the [`--fix` CLI option](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/user-guide/command-line-interface#--fix).
+
+<!-- end auto-generated rule header -->
+
+The aria-hidden attribute should never be present on the `<body>` element, as it hides the entire document from assistive technology.
+
+## Examples
+
+This rule **forbids** the following:
+
+```hbs
+<body aria-hidden>
+```
+
+```hbs
+<body aria-hidden="true">
+```
+
+This rule **allows** the following:
+
+```hbs
+<body>
+```
