February 2022 Release

1 features ✨ • 6 bugs 🐛 • 1 improvement ➕

Welcome to our February release!
We are kicking off the year by introducing more accessibility related capabilities. We’ve introduced keyboard navigation support to better enable a broader group of users to experience and access microapps.

Features

Accessibility for microapp viewers

What is it?

Last year, we started our journey towards accessibility and introduced alternative text within the builder. In this release, we are providing keyboard support for microapp viewers to navigate and interact with each element on the microapp screen.

This means common accessibility keys such as TAB, ENTER, and arrow keys are available while viewing microapps.

What’s in it for you?

The new accessibility feature allows people with all abilities to experience and benefit from the microapps you create.

By providing this new feature for your viewers, you are meeting an additional accessibility requirement.
