What should be in the normal tab order?
Short interview answer
Native interactive controls and deliberate widget focus stops should be reachable in logical DOM order. Static text does not need tabindex. Avoid positive tabindex because it creates a second, fragile navigation order.
Key takeaway
Explain the underlying mental model clearly, then support it with a concrete example and its trade-offs.
