The document discusses improving keyboard navigation in applications to allow users to work faster. It outlines 3 things improved: navigating to screens and applications, repeatedly inputting data, and navigating views and actions. Specific improvements included auto-selecting buttons, navigating lists with arrow keys, navigating between search and content views, and improved navigation within x2many fields.

faster
● Allow visually impaired people to work normally

3. 3 things we improved about
keyboard handling
● Navigate to a certain application/screen
● Input data repeatedly in the same screen
● Navigate in views and do an action

4. How did we do ?
● Auto-select buttons on every
screen
● Allow selecting records on list
views with UP/DOWN
● Allow going from search view
to list/kanban content and
create
● Focus the search view by
default on all actions
● Add aria-* metadata on most
templates
● Navigate from any field to field
x2many
● When entering field x2many,
automatically add a new line
● Completely redo the
navigation with TAB in x2many
● Automatically focus the default
action button on TAB at the
end of a form
● Lock the user on save/cancel in
a form in edit mode
