Accessibility and keyboard patterns

Canarionet applies the WCAG 2.1 Level AA standard voluntarily. This page summarises the keyboard patterns already available across the site.

Last updated: 2026-09-04

Skip-to-content link

Pressing Tab as soon as any page loads reveals a link that jumps straight to the main content, bypassing the header and navigation.

Closing menus and dialogs

Escape closes any open dropdown menu, modal, or dialog and returns focus to the element that opened it.

Tabs and toolbars

Arrow keys move focus between the tabs in a tab group and between the buttons in a toolbar, without needing Tab for each one.

Labelled forms

Every form field has an associated label, so a screen reader announces what each field is asking for.
