Focus Visible, At Last!

:focus-visible is the CSS selector of your accessible focus management dreams! It targets elements that receive focus only when the user appears to be using an input modality that would benefit from a visual. This talk will cover the history of bad :focus behavior, how :focus-visible fixes things, and general tips for focus visualizations and management in your CSS and HTML.
