Keyboard Interactions & Skip Links
Support keyboard-first users: native buttons/links, logical tab order, arrow-key patterns, and a visible skip link to main content.
Why keyboard support
Goal: Make the app fully usable with a keyboard.
- Prefer native button/a
- Logical Tab order
- Provide a skip link
Prefer native controls
- Use button for clicks (Space/Enter work by default)
- Use a href for navigation (Enter)
- Avoid clickable divs; if needed, add role, tabindex, and key handlers
