Keyboard shortcuts

Everything on these docs, and everything in the app, can be reached with a keyboard. These are the keys that do something special.

On these docs

Keys	What it does
/	Open search (not while typing in a box)
⌘ K or Ctrl K	Open search
↑ ↓ then Enter	Move through search results and open one
Esc	Close search
Tab / Shift Tab	Move forwards / backwards through links, buttons and the live examples
Tab on a fresh page	The first stop is Skip to content, which jumps past the header and sidebar
Enter / Space	Press the focused link or button

The live examples are the app’s real components, so the app’s keys below work inside them too.

In the app

Where	Keys	What it does
Everywhere	Tab / Shift Tab	Move between controls. The focused one has a ring
Buttons, links, toggles	Enter or Space	Press it. A toggle switches on or off
Forms (sign in, the code, finish account, create a jaunt, edit a jaunt, account)	Enter	Send the form, the same as its main button
Calendar, time, month range and note modals	Esc	Close it, the same as Cancel or ✕. Focus goes back to whatever opened it
Calendar, time, month range and note modals	Tab	Stays inside the modal while it’s open
Country and city pickers	↑ ↓	Move through the list
Country and city pickers	Enter	Pick the highlighted one
Country and city pickers	Esc	Close the list

The modals are covered on Modals, and the pickers on Form fields.

Known gaps

Places a keyboard can’t do everything yet:

Where	Gap
How: a saved travel leg	Deleting is a swipe left, with no keyboard way to reach Delete
How: train and taxi “Travelling from / to”	The station list only answers a tap or click: arrows and Enter can’t pick a station
