2.4.7 Focus Visible
The focused element must be clearly indicated.
What this means in practice
Without a visible focus indicator, keyboard use is practically impossible – you cannot tell where you are. The classic failure is outline:none because the default looks unpolished. Then provide your own.
What Wave Access contributes
Wave Access kann einen deutlich sichtbaren Fokusrahmen erzwingen, dessen Farbe und Stärke einstellbar sind.
