# PostCSS Focus Visible [PostCSS Logo][PostCSS] [npm version][npm-url] [CSS Standard Status][css-url] [Build Status][cli-url] [Discord][discord] [PostCSS Focus Visible] lets you use the `:focus-visible` pseudo-class in CSS, following the [Selectors Level 4 specification]. To use this feature you need to do two things : - add the [PostCSS plugin](#usage) that transforms the selector into a class or attribute - add the [focus-visible polyfill] that sets the attribute or class on elements in a browser [!['Can I use' table](https://caniuse.bitsofco.de/image/css-focus-visible.png)](https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-focus-visible) ```css ```pcss :focus:not(:focus-visible) { outline: none; } /* becomes */ :focus:not(.focus-visible).js-focus-visible, .js-focus-visible :focus:not(.focus-visible) { outline: none; } :focus:not(:focus-visible) { outline: none; } ``` [PostCSS Focus Visible] duplicates rules using the `:focus-visible` pseudo-class with a `.focus-visible` class selector, the same selector used by the [focus-visible polyfill]. ## Usage Add [PostCSS Focus Visible] to your project: ```bash npm install postcss postcss-focus-visible --save-dev ``` Use it as a [PostCSS] plugin: ```js const postcss = require('postcss'); const postcssFocusVisible = require('postcss-focus-visible'); postcss([ postcssFocusVisible(/* pluginOptions */) ]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */); ``` [PostCSS Focus Visible] runs in all Node environments, with special instructions for: - [Node](INSTALL.md#node) - [PostCSS CLI](INSTALL.md#postcss-cli) - [PostCSS Load Config](INSTALL.md#postcss-load-config) - [Webpack](INSTALL.md#webpack) - [Next.js](INSTALL.md#nextjs) - [Gulp](INSTALL.md#gulp) - [Grunt](INSTALL.md#grunt) ## Options ### preserve The `preserve` option determines whether the original notation is preserved. By default, it is preserved. ```js postcssFocusVisible({ preserve: false }) ``` ```pcss :focus:not(:focus-visible) { outline: none; } /* becomes */ :focus:not(.focus-visible).js-focus-visible, .js-focus-visible :focus:not(.focus-visible) { outline: none; } ``` ### replaceWith The `replaceWith` option defines the selector to replace `:focus-visible`. By default, the replacement selector is `.focus-visible`. ```js postcssFocusVisible({ replaceWith: '[data-focus-visible-added]' }) ``` ```pcss :focus:not(:focus-visible) { outline: none; } /* becomes */ ``` Note that if you want to keep using [focus-visible polyfill], the only acceptable value would be `[data-focus-visible-added]`, given that the polyfill does not support arbitrary values. ### disablePolyfillReadyClass The `disablePolyfillReadyClass` option determines if selectors are prefixed with an indicator class. This class is only set on your document if the polyfill loads and is needed. By default this option is `false`. Set this to `true` to prevent the class from being added. ```js postcssFocusVisible({ disablePolyfillReadyClass: true }) ``` ```pcss :focus:not(:focus-visible) { outline: none; } /* becomes */ :focus:not(.focus-visible) { outline: none; } :focus:not(:focus-visible) { outline: none; } ``` [cli-url]: https://github.com/csstools/postcss-plugins/actions/workflows/test.yml?query=workflow/test [css-url]: https://cssdb.org/#focus-visible-pseudo-class [discord]: https://discord.gg/bUadyRwkJS [npm-url]: https://www.npmjs.com/package/postcss-focus-visible [PostCSS]: https://github.com/postcss/postcss [PostCSS Focus Visible]: https://github.com/csstools/postcss-plugins/tree/main/plugins/postcss-focus-visible [Selectors Level 4 specification]: https://www.w3.org/TR/selectors-4/#the-focus-visible-pseudo [focus-visible polyfill]: https://github.com/WICG/focus-visible
