Disclosed in some examples, are methods, systems, and machine-readable mediums which provide for a focus management framework that provides for greater knowledge and control of focus transitions. An event listener is attached to a root focusable element of the DOM. The event listener may receive all focus interactions with any child element. By listening for all focus events the framework may provide more powerful events that provide both the source element and destination element as event parameters. This framework allows many different applications, such as for example, allowing the application to customize the order focus is transitioned (from the browser's default order), to allow for a history of focus events, to enable a declarative language for defining behaviors for elements of the application that need to be involved with scenarios that depend on focus transition, aggregating messages sent to assistive technologies triggered by a focus transition, and the like.
