Keyboard navigation is important for many visitors. We ensure that interactive elements such as menus, form fields, and action buttons are reachable and operable via the keyboard. Focus indicators remain visible and sequential tab order is preserved. Where complex widgets are used we include ARIA attributes to improve compatibility with assistive technologies.
