TIL about the ‚inert’ HTML attribute which prevents user input on elements. This can be used to implement focus traps with less JavaScript for example!

  The HTMLElement property inert is a boolean value that, when present, makes the browser "ignore" user input events for the element, including focus events and events from assistive technologies. The browser may also ignore page search and text selection in the element. This can be useful when building UIs such as modals where you would want to "trap" the focus inside the modal when it's visible.
