If you're a front-end developer, I'm sure at least once you've put an outline none on your buttons or other elements because you don't want that default outline on them. Probably because you've come up with some other type of thing instead. I'm hoping at least. So if a user is keyboard navigating, it's still very clear what is happening. But I'm going to tell you not to do this and that there's a better solution. And that's because if a user uses a high contrast mode on their operating system, all of a sudden that fancy hover and focus effect that you've put on your elements is completely gone and just doesn't do anything at all.
