Keyboard Interaction

Keyboard Interaction is a way for people to use digital products by pressing keys on a keyboard, which is very important for making things easy to use for everyone. Designers can help more people use websites and apps by making sure users can move around and use all features with only a keyboard. For example, using the Tab key to move between buttons and links, and using Enter or Space to select things, helps people who use keyboards instead of a mouse. Designers can add clear focus indicators, so it is easy to see where you are on the page. Good keyboard design lets people fill out forms, use menus, and close pop-ups without using a mouse, which makes digital products work better for more people.
