When should Tabindex be used?
The tabindex attribute of 1+ explicitly defines the navigation order for focusable elements (typically links and form controls) within a page. It can also be used to define whether elements should be focusable or not.

Accessibility concerns
Avoid using the tabindex attribute in conjunction with non-interactive content to make something intended to be interactive focusable by keyboard input. An example of this would be using a <div> element to describe a button, instead of the <button> element.
What is the difference between Tabindex 0 and Tabindex =- 1?
tabindex= "0" allows elements besides links and form elements to receive keyboard focus. It does not change the tab order, but places the element in the logical navigation flow, as if it were a link on the page. tabindex= "-1" removes the element from the navigation sequence, but can be made focusable using javascript.
What is Tabindex =- 1 in HTML?
A tabindex="-1" value removes the element from the default navigation flow (i.e., a user cannot tab to it), but it allows it to receive programmatic focus, meaning focus can be set to it from a link or with scripting.
