Why setting z-index are bad practices and should avoided? Overlay, modal, etc works with z-index isn't it?
z-index is bad for accessibility (like screen readers) because it sort of places stuff in the wrong order and confuses people.
z-index
As @codingjlu pointed out, is an a11y issue. If you want to put something in top of something else, you should be using the DOM order, not z-index. Is as bad as setting tabindex in HTML.
tabindex
Oh, thank you. I think I need do research about a11y and z-index
But at the same time, remember that z-index is useful in some situations like popups or banners or nitty gritty stuff.
