keyboard

last week, we released a new version of the azure portal (v5.0). there is a lot of improvements in the portal, but i would like to focus on particular one: the keyboard shortcuts. check it out!

hubs (left menu) shortcuts:

h – equivalent of clicking ‘home’ (toggle between startboard and active journey) [journey is the currently opened group of blades; blade is card/tab/subpage that contains some group of tiles, e.g. website properties or analytics)

n – open notifications hub

a – open active journeys hub

s or / – open browse/search hub

b – open billing hub

c – open create/new hub

azure portal keyboard shortcuts: hubs

changing focus between blades shortcuts:

j – set focus on the previous blade

k – set focus on the next blade

f – set focus on the first blade

l – set focus on the last blade

azure portal keyboard shortcuts: blade focus

this is one of the first steps to make portal usable only with keyboard. currently we are working on focus management (to have focus placed/restored on expected/useful items). we are planning to add more shortcuts, and keyboard shortcuts legend (available by pressing ‘?’).

what do you think? are you using keyboard shortcuts on other websites?
