Focus state

The visual indication of a UI element, such as a form field or button, when it is selected or active, often highlighted to show where the user’s attention is currently focused.

What is a Focus State?

A focus state indicates the current active element in a user interface, often highlighted by a visual cue such as an outline, border, or color change. Focus states are crucial for accessibility, particularly for users navigating with a keyboard or assistive devices.

Properly designed focus states help users understand where they are in an interface and which element will respond to their input. Ensuring that focus states are clearly visible and consistently applied across the interface enhances usability and accessibility for all users.
