{{aria-grid}}
This library provides keyboard interaction for grids based on the ARIA Grid design pattern. This benefits people that interact with grids via keyboard or methods other than a mouse. This includes people such as power users and people that can’t use a mouse. The keyboard interactions make it easier to navigate large data sets.
Interactive Example
This example allows you to try out the keyboard interactions as outlined in §Keyboard Interaction.
Keyboard Interaction
Note: If focus is on a cell inside the “body” and Ctrl+Up Arrow is pressed. Focus will move move to the top most cell in the “body”. A second press is needed to move into the column headers.
Note: There is no such difference between a “data cell” and a “row header”.
Future Support
Future updates will allow for selection of cells/rows. Also included is the following keyboard support.
