API#


useFocusVisible( (props: FocusVisibleProps )): FocusVisibleResult

Features#


useFocusVisible handles focus interactions for the page and determines whether keyboard focus should be visible (e.g. with a focus ring). Focus visibility is computed based on the current interaction mode of the user. When the user interacts via a mouse or touch, then focus is not visible. When the user interacts via a keyboard or screen reader, then focus is visible. This is similar to the :focus-visible pseudo class in CSS.

To determine whether a focus ring should be visible for an individual component rather than globally, see useFocusRing.

Example#


This example shows focus visible state and updates as you interact with the page. By default, when the page loads, it is true. If you press anywhere on the page with a mouse or touch, then focus visible state is set to false. If you keyboard navigate around the page then it is set to true again.

Note that this example uses the isTextInput option so that only certain navigation keys cause focus visible state to appear. This prevents focus visible state from appearing when typing text in a text field.

import {useFocusVisible} from 'react-aria';

function Example() {
  let { isFocusVisible } = useFocusVisible({ isTextInput: true });

  return (
    <>
      <div>Focus visible: {String(isFocusVisible)}</div>
      <label style={{ display: 'block' }}>
        First Name: <input />
      </label>
      <label style={{ display: 'block' }}>
        Last Name: <input />
      </label>
    </>
  );
}
