Focus Management
Focus management is the practice of programmatically directing keyboard focus to appropriate elements during dynamic interactions — opening a modal, navigating to a new route in an SPA, revealing newly added content — so that keyboard and screen-reader users follow the same logical sequence as visual users.
About Focus Management
Common patterns: trap focus inside an open modal; return focus to the trigger when closed; move focus to a heading after route change; do not steal focus from an active control.
