Keyboard Accessibility Challenge

45 minEach project

Format: Unplug your mouse (or disable the trackpad) and navigate a website using only the keyboard.

Steps:

  • Tab to move focus
  • Enter to activate buttons/links
  • Arrow keys to navigate menus

Record:

  • Is the focus position visible? (Do you know where you are?)
  • Are all features accessible?
  • Is the focus order logical? (Top to bottom, left to right?)
  • Are there any "focus traps" (areas you can enter but not leave)?
  • When a modal opens, does focus transfer to it?

Why It Matters: Approximately 16% of the world's population has some form of disability (WHO data). Keyboard accessibility is the most fundamental accessibility requirement.
